Join Catalyst Project for a study & struggle session on the #Vision4BlackLives policy demands. The vision and leadership of organizers in the Movement for Black Lives and the results of the presidential election require all of us to step up our commitment and work for racial justice--- let's talk about how to do that concretely! This event will primarily be facilitated small groups focused on getting aligned and active with this transformative document. Our discussion will assume participants have read the #Vision4BlackLives policy demands, so please do so beforehand, and/or join us for the first 45 min dedicated to reading. Find the document on policy.m4bl.org.
