The Indivisible People of Color (POC) Working Group is pleased to announce that we have developed a monthly call specifically for other people of color within our movement. The call will be led by our POC Organizing Working Group staffers along with some of our incredible leaders and members.
Far too often, people of color feel the weight of the work the heaviest and have the least amount of say in how we respond or what we engage with. The National Indivisible POC Call is designed to center the voices of those most affected in our societies.
We all have had experiences with racial issues within progressive spaces, and we want to be intentional in how we respond and work through those together. This call will serve as a safe space to talk freely and learn from those who encounter issues similar to ours.
This call is not for allies. We love you, we appreciate you and we are happy to have you in our corner; however, this space is solely for people of color. Indivisible National is happy to support this space and provide the resources for the POC staff and leaders to continue work around equity and inclusion within our movement.
This call is meant to be a safe space for fellow people of color in the Indivisible network, with the shared understanding that each participant agrees to uphold the values of compassion, trust, acceptance, radical candor, assumption of best intentions and the right to name impact. This space will not allow for disrespectful, marginalizing or combative participation.
The inaugural call will be held on Tuesday, June 25, 2019 at 7:30 pm EST, and you can register here.
