Celebrating Equity & Visionary Leaders @ United Domestic Workers Community Hall
Sep 19 @ 5:30 pm – 7:30 pm

This year, we had the honor of graduating the fourth cohort of our Boards and Commissions Leadership Institute and the 14th class of our Students for Economic Justice Fellowship.

Over the course of six months, 13 community leaders expanded their skills to serve on commissions and seven students learned and practiced organizing skills in on-the-ground organizing campaigns led by local labor and community partners.

Now it’s time to celebrate these visionary leaders!

We invite you to join us—and City of San Diego Councilmember Monica Montgomery—to recognize their achievements and celebrate our growing community of leaders and organizers working to create a more equitable San Diego region.

Data Driven: Advancing Racial Justice & Police Accountability (ACLU SD) @ UDW/AFSCME
Dec 3 @ 6:00 pm – 8:00 pm

We have a right to know how law enforcement interacts with our communities. The public should be able to trust that when an officer stops a person, it is for a legitimate and justifiable reason. However, officers entrusted to enforce our laws disproportionately stop, question and search Black and brown people in our community.

Please plan to attend our upcoming event, Data Driven: Advancing Racial Justice & Police Accountability in San Diego on Tuesday, December 3, for an analysis of policing practices in the San Diego region.

On December 3, the ACLU of San Diego & Imperial Counties will release a commissioned report that analyzes traffic and pedestrian stop data from the San Diego Police Department and San Diego County Sheriff’s Department.

You are invited to attend a special event to learn about this new report and to explore ways to address racially-biased policing, reduce police violence, improve accountability and make San Diego safer and more just for all.

The report’s author, Samuel Sinyangwe, data scientist and co-founder of Campaign Zero, will present on the report’s findings and recommendations.
