Please join us this Sunday, in conjunction with the Catalyst Project, for

discussion and skill share on how to move ourselves and other white people
to take bold and accountable action against racism locally.

This event will focus on white people taking anti-racist action, but all
are welcome.

The panel is happening in Oakland, and is hosted by the Catalyst Project,
but we will be watching a livestream accompanied by in-person discussion
here in CU.
