John,

Did you miss last week's conversation: Get Your Advocacy in Shape? Don't worry. We have you covered.

It was an enlightening and inspiring event, featuring leading voices from the African American Tobacco Control Leadership Council, Black Women's Health Imperative, Center for Black Health and Equity, National LGBT Cancer Network, Public Health Solutions, and more.

Watch the full conversation here:

The event was part of our Campaign for the Culture. This comprehensive initiative is focused on uniting, empowering, educating and engaging people of color and other targeted communities around critical healthcare and human rights issues connected to tobacco use, with the goal of inspiring young community members to avoid or quit tobacco.

This event was the fourth in our ongoing series of cultural conversations under this initiative – which includes other activities like listening tours at historically Black colleges and universities (HBCUs), virtual summits, dinner series and advocate profiles.

Campaign for the Culture is focused on these core pillars:

• Educating the public and building awareness in Black and other impacted communities about the harmful effects of tobacco use.
• Engaging the medical community and appealing to providers for support.
• Mobilizing NGOs, policy experts, community leaders and key stakeholders to activate ground-level support for policies and actions.

I'm excited to work with advocates like you to make sure we succeed.

Sincerely,
