Black Lives Matter And Why We Need to be Involved: A Nikkei Community Conversation
This event was recorded and is now up on our Facebook.
Today, communities are coming together to rise up against injustices. What is the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement? Where do Japanese Americans fit in? Join the Portland JACL for this virtual event to hear from community members about why the BLM movement is necessary and how it affects the Nikkei community. We will have time for Q&A after the panel.
WHEN: Saturday, September 19 | 3-4:30pm
WHERE/HOW: Zoom - Registration is required to receive the link for the Zoom event. You can submit questions for the panel in advance during registration. RSVP by Friday, September 18th at https://tinyurl.com/Nikkei4BLM
