Wednesday, September 8 or Wednesday, September 15, 7-8pm, this on-line event requires advance registration

This workshop will be offered on two different evenings, Wednesday, September 8 and Wednesday, September 15.

This workshop is designed to help you plan for and engage in a productive meeting with your Ohio state legislators during the September 22 #StatehouseStomp event regarding the anti-protest bills. It will also be helpful for other legislative visits that you might want to make. This event will include Larry Bresler and others with the #OurVoicesTogether Coalition.

Whether we’re Black or white, Latino or Asian, Indigenous, or newcomer, we want our families to be healthy and whole. But today, as Ohioans march together in anger and mourning over the brutal shootings of Black Americans by police, a handful of politicians are trying to turn us against one another. They hope that by spreading lies about our collective demands for justice and silencing us by criminalizing peaceful public witness, we will turn against these efforts to ensure a better future for us all. We reject their attempts to divide us, and we will raise our voices together on September 22 for Andre Hill, George Floyd, and Casey Goodson, Jr., until justice is truly for all.

Please register in advance for this meeting.After registering, you will receive a confirmation e-mail message containing information about joining the meeting.
