There are many events planned around the celebration of the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. We strongly encourage you to participate in these events. Of particular importance is the King Day of Action, which is being coordinated by Brown Virginia and conducted in collaboration with the Virginia State Conference (VSC) of the NAACP. This is a day of engagement and advocacy with our General Assembly around a legislative agenda to bring about equality and social justice. We desire to have at least 10 members of the PWC NAACP to participate in this event.Please see the attached flyer for more information. Within the next week we will provide a copy of the legislative agenda being developed by the VSC NAACP.
In addition to meeting with your individual legislator(s) we have confirmed the following presenters to speak & take questions from the group throughout the day:
Governor Terry McAuliffe
Lt. Gov. Ralph Northam
Sen. Ryan McDougle (Republican Caucus Chair)
Sec. Brian Moran (Public Safety & Homeland Security)
Sec. Anne Holton (Education)
