You are invited to the Third Annual Racial Justice Summit 2023
======================================================================
For the third year in a row our country faces pandemic-related stress, economic uncertainty, and continued attacks on civil rights and women’s rights. Our country is entrenched in deep-seated divisions that threaten BIPOC communities. The looming shadows of Jim and Jane Crow fall over us daily as we process the overturning of Roe v. Wade, and the sustained attacks on voting rights, critical race theory, and more. But we also know that we can push back on those who seek to halt our progress through legal remedies and grassroots advocacy. We will not let our dreams of a truly United States, one that offers opportunity and equity for all, be thwarted.
This year the National Organization for Women (NOW) will host our annual Racial Justice Summit under the theme Uniting the States of America: Tackling Jim and Jane Crow through Law. [ [link removed] ]Throughout the event, we will feature a keynote on Critical Race Theory and hold engaging discussions on the insidious effects of voter suppression, removing barriers to BIPOC wealth, and raising awareness of missing sisters and loved ones. The event will feature dialogue between notable thought leaders, Congressional members, constituents, and stakeholders of all different backgrounds regarding racial justice.
This event is hybrid, in-person, and will be live-streamed.
Space is limited to attend in person and tickets must be reserved by February 15, 2023. To attend in person: Click here to RSVP: [link removed]
