Heard from Ahmed Taha of <b>Muslim American Society:</b> on<b>
Tuesday, Feb. 28th,</b> for Black History Month, they're doing an
event - two speakers including sociologist Evelyn Reynolds, and
someone coming down from Chicago, and an award to Rebecca Ginsburg
for her Education Justice Project work.<br>
<br>
They are inviting activist groups around the area to (a) cosponsor
and (b) speak briefly, for a minute or two, to let community members
know what they're up to and encourage them to join in.<br>
<br>
Cosponsorship wouldn't involve money, just encouraging our members
to come to the event.<br>
<br>
AWARE is invited. <b>Should we agree to cosponsor</b> - and offer
to speak? <br>
<br>
I think this could be a good bridge-building thing to do.<br>
<br>
They'd like to know by this weekend, since they're drawing up the
flyer now, which will list cosponsoring groups. Maybe we can talk
about this at Sunday's AWARE meeting.<br>
