Environmental Justice Town Hall

Hosted by the Environmental Justice and Religious Affairs Committees of the NAACP Boulder Branch, the goal of the town hall on Sunday 10/29 from 3-5pm is to create alignment across environmental justice efforts in Boulder County. To quote Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., “Those who love peace must learn to organize as effectively as those who love war.”
