One Answer to the Question, How Can I End the Silence?

Zoom Webinar

The death of George Floyd exposed, again and again, the structural racism of what Eric Mann calls “the white settler state.” The Labor/Community Strategy Center in South Los Angeles, is a think tank/act tank where Black and Latino people are fighting for social justice. The Center’s Bus Riders Union is fighting for free public transportation, its Taking Action Social Justice Clubs helped to win a 35% reduction in the Los Angeles School Police Budget and the Center’s Revolutionary Organizers Film and Book club shows films about inspiring social revolutions. While the Strategy Center membership and staff are overwhelmingly Black and Latinx, the center is a multi-racial organization where volunteers of all races are welcome and needed. Eric is a veteran of the Congress of Racial Equality and is now an organizer in South Los Angeles at the Strategy and Soul Movement Center. His book Playbook for Progressives: the 16 Qualities of the Successful Organizer has been read by more than 10,000 of the best organizers in the U.S. But what about your life, your life choices? Eric will be joined by LCSC Director of Organizing, Channing Martinez and Lead Organizer Brigette Amaya. They will talk about many constructive choices you can make to serve Black and Latino communities and fight for the interests of the Third World. The only question is, “Do you want to make those choices?”
