Confronting Explicit Racism
Published:

Virginia Ave. Park

The Committee For Racial Justice will hold its monthly workshop on Sunday, August 6. The July meeting was attended by five members of white nationalist groups who behaved disrespectfully and disruptively. The CRJ Steering Committee has put some security measures in place to ensure a safe environment for the monthly workshops and is treating this incident as a teachable moment. At the August 6 meeting, noted movement attorney Nana Gyamfi, who is already acting as an advisor to the Steering Committee, will address the workshop and explain participants’ rights in public meetings.

In addition, there will be a second speaker who will inform everyone present about the origins, ideologies, motivations, strategies and intentions of white nationalist groups.

This is part of an ongoing monthly workshop series sponsored by the Committee For Racial Justice.

Co-sponsored by Virginia Ave. Park; the African American Parent, Staff, Student Support Group; and the Church in Ocean Park. For more information, call (310) 422-5431

Sunday, August 6. 6 - 8:30 p.m. (potluck supper at 6 p.m. & program at 6:30 p.m.) Virginia Avenue Park, Thelma Terry Bldg., 2200 Virginia Ave. Free Workshop.
