Angela Davis in Conversation at GLIDE Culminating Black History Month
On Thursday, February 26th, GLIDE hosted a powerful and timely Black History Month event called, “Legacy and Liberation – A Conversation with Dr. Angela Y Davis.” For decades, Dr. Angela Y. Davis has shaped global movements for Black liberation, prison abolition, and intersectional justice. Among her trusted supporters was GLIDE’s Reverend Cecil Williams, whose leadership positioned GLIDE as a sanctuary for the revolution.
She Carried Us Forward
To launch Black History & Futures Month, GLIDE held She Carried Us Forward, a celebration honoring the brilliance, courage, creativity, and enduring leadership of Black women. Black women are too often unnamed background characters in history– even when their actions should earn them the spotlight!
Help Us Protect Immigrants!
GLIDE stands in solidarity with our clients, staff, and community– with special attention and care for groups that are being targeted right now: immigrants, refugees, LGBT+ people, and BIPOC of all kinds. We will NEVER stop being a sanctuary for all.
