Mark your calendars and prepare to be inspired!
This isn’t just any meeting; it’s a beacon for change, community, and progress. 🌱✨We’re thrilled to announce that Nikki Baszynski, a trailblazer in the fight for justice and equity, will be our guest speaker. With over a decade of experience challenging the injustices of the criminal legal system and advocating for a world where safety means investment in people, not punishment, Nikki’s insights are not to be missed. From her groundbreaking work at the Ohio Justice & Policy Center to her influential teachings at The Ohio State University Moritz College of Law, she brings a wealth of knowledge and passion to the table. 🎤

💡Join us for an evening of powerful dialogue, learning, and community building. Whether you’re a long-standing member or new to the NAACP family, your voice matters in our collective journey toward justice. And don’t worry, we’ve got the food covered too! 🍽️🥗This is more than a meeting - it’s a moment to come together, to be inspired, and to continue the vital work of fighting for a future where every person has the opportunity to thrive.

Let’s make this a gathering to remember.

Still can’t get over how amazing last Sunday was at the @NAACP_Cleveland’s #FreedomFundDinner! The Speaker, @TiffanyDCross, some of my Political Action Committee members, our Executive Board for the branch, fraternity brothers, and friends. This was definitely a night to remember.

Have to give a shout-out to my #squad

Some people think we work for the NAACP because the work is so important you would assume it’s our job. (We have 2 paid staff @liyah.marieeee + @crystalbryant779)

These members give of their time, their talent, and their treasure to advance the community.

Annual membership is $30 or better yet you can become a lifetime member for $750 paid over 10 years.

We grind together, we build together, we advocate together.

Join us in this fight 💪🏽✊🏽
