Retiree Legacy Initiative Hosts: Black Authors Showcase
The AFT Retiree Legacy Initiative strives to create the space for meaningful dialogue and engagement of AFT retirees around topics of social justice, activism, ally-ship and community through the sharing of retirees' diversity of lived experiences and histories. The Retiree Legacy Initiative is focused on dialogue surrounding racial justice in America.
This year for Black History Month our team would like to celebrate the accomplishments of Black Authors we know!  

***All of our events take place VIRTUALLY via Zoom. The Zoom link will be emailed to registrants the day before an event, please register at least 48 hours prior to the workshop if you wish to attend.

***Parts of this event and conversation may cover serious topics such as, racism, sexism, abuse and violence as well as joy, community and persistence in the fight for dignity and respect. We understand that some topics are harder than others and support you in the event you need to step out of the Zoom Room to protect your peace at any time.
