Dear John,
The Advancing Black Strategists Initiative--or ABSI for short--is a joint project of Jobs With Justice Education Fund, Institute for Policy Studies' Black Workers Initiative, and Morehouse College International Comparative Labor Studies. ABSI seeks to create a cohort of Black economic justice and labor-focused strategists committed to leading, developing, and advancing policies and campaigns that support the collective power of working people--particularly in the South.
The September 3 launch event will feature leading Black economists and campaigners and we will invite Black Strategists to join our new network. |

ABSI will support the development of a new school of thought anchored in the principle that working people's ability to organize and collectively bargain, alongside voting, and other forms of civic participation, is a prerequisite for a healthy society and economy.
Whether you're a Black strategist, activist, ally--or just want to learn more about ABSI--please join us on Thursday, September 3 at 4:00 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time. The virtual launch event is free and open to the public, but please RSVP here, so you can reserve your space.
In Solidarity,
Erica Smiley Executive Director Jobs With Justice |
