Call & Email Political Party Leaders to Demand Anti-Racism Action!
Dear SNIWWOC Volunteers and Supporters,
We need your help! We are organizing a political town hall next week and have invited all three of the B.C. major party leaders: NDP John Horgan, LIBERAL Andrew Wilkinson and GREENS Sonia Furstenau.
GREENS Leader Sonia Furstenau has already accepted the invitation, but we’d like to hear from the other parties too.
So here’s what we’re gonna do: an
Old School Call ‘em up campaign!
Dear SNIWWOC Volunteers and Supporters,
We need your help! We are organizing a political town hall next week and have invited all three of the B.C. major party leaders: NDP John Horgan, LIBERAL Andrew Wilkinson and GREENS Sonia Furstenau.
GREENS Leader Sonia Furstenau has already accepted the invitation, but we’d like to hear from the other parties too.
So here’s what we’re gonna do: an Old School Call ‘em up campaign!
We’ve got a call script and simple directions ready to make it super easy.
The importance and timeliness of this acknowledgement is that we are now more than halfway through the UN International Decade for People of African Descent. And if formally recognized, it will result in concrete actions to drastically improve the lives of Black British Columbians who have also been disproportionately impacted by Covid-19.
We’ve also got an election coming up in 15 days.
All parties must now prepare to navigate an election campaign unlike any held previously in B.C. history. This is a huge opportunity for party leaders to discuss their anti-racism strategies and publicly acknowledge and support the UN International Decade of People of African Descent (IDPAD).
IT’S SO EASY!
a) Call 604-430-8600 to speak with the BC NDP and 604-606-6000 to speak with the BC Liberals.
* Remember to read the script with enthusiasm and be proud of yourself for pitching in on this anti-racism work. *
c) Click to email the BC Liberals
Thanks for lending a few minutes of your time to help us with this.
Let’s make it happen.
