Dear Friend,
[ [link removed] ]Will you join MomsRising and our partners to tell the Moms for Liberty
they are not welcome in the DMV? Please join us for a joyous Celebration
of Reading, this Saturday, August 31, 10 am to 2:00 pm, at the MLK Library
in Washington DC. Click to RSVP.
Yes, the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) recognized extremist group
Moms for Liberty — or as we call them, Moms Against Liberty— is coming to
Washington, DC, over Labor Day weekend for their 2024 convention. They
will be partnering with the right-wing Heritage Foundation for a “kids
march” at the Mall to amplify their hateful message around book bans and
Project 2025. 😠😠😠
But here’s the great news! Moms, families, and caregivers will be drowning
them out with our own huge, joyous, inclusive event: A Celebration of
Reading, with authors, musical performances, and drag readings! ❤️🎉
[ [link removed] ]Can you join us? The more people who join our celebration, the louder
our voice to drown out the toxic Moms for Liberty! RSVP now.
Every child and every family deserves to be seen, heard, and included in
our schools. They deserve to see themselves in the books they read, and
also to learn with and from people who are different from them, and to
grow and thrive in our multiracial democracy.
We’re coming together to say that we are with every child — and we know
that the overwhelming majority of people in this country want to work
together towards a brighter and more inclusive future.
We’re sending a message to organized censorship groups like Moms for
Liberty that they’re not welcome here, that we reject their agenda, and
that we are determined to fight together for the future all children
deserve!
[ [link removed] ]You are needed!! Would you please bring your kids, family, and friends
to join us at our joyous Celebration of Reading, this Saturday, August 31,
10 am to 2:00 pm, at the MLK Library in Washington DC? RSVP here.

Gloria, Ruth, and the whole MomsRising.org & MamásConPoder Team
