John,

Members of the labor community and allies are invited to join a peaceful direct action event TOMORROW, Juneteenth starting at 5pm in support of the Black Lives Matter movement. The effort is being coordinated by a group of unions that includes the Painters, Ironworkers District Council of The Mid-Atlantic States, the Union Veterans Council and Metro Washington Council affiliates.

This is a call to the streets to stand up for the ideals that this country was founded on but not lived up to. We must work towards a more perfect union with liberty and justice for ALL!

As members of the labor movement, we fully understand the power of one's voice and solidarity. Here is your opportunity to add your voice to the call for racial justice.

Details:

Action: Short Rally and March (Route TBT)
Where: Black Lives Matter Plaza (Corner of 16th & I Streets NW, Washington, DC 20006)
When: 5:00 p.m., June 19, 2020
Safety: Come at your own risk, follow social distancing and wear a mask. Please wear your AFGE gear.

Click here to RSVP.

In Solidarity,

Dr. Everett Kelley
AFGE National President
