24th ANNUAL AMERICAN COURAGE AWARDS

Thursday, December 3, 2020
7:00 PM EST

Celebrate with us virtually! ([link removed])

The American Courage Awards ([link removed]) is an annual event hosted by Advancing Justice | AAJC, honoring individuals, groups, and corporations in recognition of their extraordinary courage or commitment to the cause of Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) civil rights.

In addition to using a virtual platform for this year’s event, we are shifting our traditional programming. Of special focus will be our call-to-action on the spike of anti-Asian and anti-Asian American sentiment as a result of the pandemic, the Black Lives Matter movement, and our ongoing efforts in delivering on our mission.

Confirmed Speakers:
* Eric Holder, 82nd Attorney General of the United States and past ACA honoree
* Vanita Gupta, President and Chief Executive Officer of The Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights
* Sherrilyn Ifill, President and Director-Counsel of the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund, Inc
* Thomas A. Saenz, President and General Counsel, Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund
* Helen Zia, Author and Activist

We hope you will join us for this very special event!

The event is FREE this year! We appreciate any contributions ([link removed]) you would like to make in advance or the night of the event to enable Asian Americans Advancing Justice - AAJC to continue protecting our communities and promoting civil and human rights for all.
