A TOWNHALL ON SAFETY & SECURITY

Asian Solidarity Collective is a proud co-sponsor of the People's Collective of Justice and Liberation and their upcoming event:

Following the townhall on #AntiAsianRacism, we continue our series with one on Redefining Safety and Security in the time of Coronavirus/COVID-19.

We will share historical ways Anti-Asian Racism has led to discrimination, violence, and even had longer term policy implications.

Speakers will show the intersections of Anti-Asian Racism with mass incarceration, deportation and detention and make solidarity connections with Black, brown and communities of color and lift up alternative models to safety and security to policing including pods, mutual aid, transformative justice and local community based approaches.

Co-Hosted by:

Gregory Cendana, Can’t Stop! Won’t Stop! Consulting

Kuttin Kandi, Asian Solidarity Collective
