In collaboration with Here4TheKids RVA, we are delighted to present a new speaker series - Abolition, Liberation, Solidarity.

To ensure everyone can fully participate, free childcare will be provided on-site.

Our inaugural talk will take place from 4:00-5:30pm on Saturday February 17th with Saira Rao, cofounder of Race2Dinner and Here4TheKids, moderating.

Her panelists will include: Samieh Shalash, Palestinian-American, activist and community organizer / Sonali Gulati, Queer Rights Activist and community organizer / Rev Jess Cook, Organizing Minister at Every Table / Ashley Williams, Mind-Body Therapist, Founder of BareSOUL, Curator of the Well Collective / With a special grounding meditation guided by Charles Bolling, Wellness Minister at Every Table.
