This Juneteenth: Join us for the First "Week of Resistance"
This Juneteenth, we're not just celebrating our ancestors' freedom. Our theme this year is "Resist." We're resisting tyranny and answering the call to defend our freedom. Join us for the Juneteenth: Week of Resistance, a powerful week-long series of events from June 13th to 21st, honoring our people's strength, spirit, and strategy in the face of ongoing attacks on our rights, voices, and communities.
Start the Week of Resistance at the Resistance Summit on June 13th.
Resistance Summit:
We're kicking off our celebration with the Resistance Summit on June 13th, 10 am to 4 pm, at Gethsemane Missionary Baptist Church, 29066 Eton Street, Westland, MI. This teach-in will explain why resistance is necessary. With immigration raids on the rise, voting rights under attack, and civil liberties being stripped away, we'll learn how to push back, protect each other, and build the power to win.
Buycott:
From June 15th - 21st, join the Buycott! From the Montgomery Bus Boycott to boycotting Target, our economic resistance has always been rooted in purpose! As programs like DEI are dismantled, we're doubling down on supporting businesses that honor our history, hire us, and respect our buying power. Let's move our money with intention and invest in those who invest and hire us.
More events to come. Register now.
