RSVP to call into the Compact for Racial Justice Forums

With nearly 600,000 US jobs lost in January, the Applied Research Center has to ask the question: Is Obama’s job’s agenda racial justice ready? The principles for racial justice must be front and center if this new economy is going to work for all of us.

Join the conference call forum for an exchange on ensuring that the recovery plan also stimulates racial justice. We need green jobs and union jobs with good wages and benefits that help low-income and communities of color.

Feb 17th “Race and Jobs”
(call at 1PM Pacific, 4PM Eastern)

The next call is on “Race and Jobs” Tuesday Feb 17 at 1PM PST / 4PM EST. If you are interested, you must RSVP by the Monday before the call.
