Thank you. -Jonathon Stefanie Bowers Equity Direct City of Iowa City 410 E. Washington St. Iowa City, Iowa 52240 Sefanie-bowers(aiowa-city.org Dear Stefanie Bowers, I write this note today to inform you of my impending resignation from the Iowa City Human Rights Commission, as I shall be moving out of Iowa City to pursue an employment opportunity in McAllen, Texas. I hope this resignation to be effective October 24, 2019, the date after our Human Rights Breakfast. It has ben an honor and a pleasure to work with you personally, and with the fine commissioners that I have had the opportunity to meet. During my tenure, I have learned much about the people and organizations that serve the oppressed and marginalized in Iowa City, those "norm entrepreneurs" who envision a more just and equitable society where neither race nor social class determines a person's life outcomes. The work of the human rights community in Iowa City is all the more impressive in that much of this work is done behind the scenes, without the pretense of ownership. These exemplars of beneficence remind me of "that throng of Selves that make this nation one body of Prophecy," to use the words of Allen Ginsberg. To end again with some words from Ginsberg, the hard work of you and the other commissioners make me hopeful that we can foster a community that makes "Holy the supernatural extra brilliant intelligent kindness of the soul!" Respectfully, Jonathon Munoz'
