As part of #GivingTuesday, our organization launched the Dignity and Power Now Pledge, a social media partnership with professional athletes that took a knee in support of ending police violence.
The Pledge encourages athletes, fans, and supporters to contribute to criminal justice reform and end mass incarceration of Black and Brown people. It's a promise to fight for equality, to heal our communities, and to stand up for what is right.
This Monday, December 7th at 6:30 PM PST, join Dignity and Power Now for an evening of self-care and community building with grounding exercises and community conversation.
Dignity and Power Now's Health and Wellness team created the Re-Entry & Anti-Recidivism Guide to assist formerly incarcerated community members with employment, mental health, health care, educational and housing programs.
The Re-Entry | Anti-Recidivism Guide can be shared widely with your friends, family, and impacted community members.
“In short, Black people won this election,” Dignity and Power Now founder and Black Lives Matter co-founder, Patrisse Cullorswrote to Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. “We want something for our vote. We want to be heard and our agenda to be prioritized.”
“Anything compared to the Trump administration is going to look sophisticated,” Lex Steppling, Dignity and Power Now. “But the truth is the Obama-era DOJ didn’t achieve very much.”
