Hello John
These last few weeks, we have seen the young activists worldwide hosting protests against police violence. In response, our chair, Kelsey Brewer, has released a statement calling for accountability from our elected officials, future candidates, and our party leaders. You can see her full statement and our list of commitments detailed here.
To follow up on our statements and further the conversation, this month's meeting is dedicated to talking about Black lives in Orange County and what our next steps are as young people for protecting Black lives and uplifting Black voices. Join us and our special guest speaker Norberto Santana Jr., Editor of the Voice of OC tomorrow, Wednesday, June 10th at 7pm !
For your safety, will continue to host our meetings on zoom. You can join us here!
