The Committee discussed and agreed to conduct two events in what remains of the 2020-2021 fiscal year.
• The May event will be a discussion on the hate report conducted by Los Angeles County and presented by Marshall Wong from the LA County Commission on Human Relations on May 14th via Webex.
• The June event may be an educational teach-in event on June 19, 2021 in observance of Juneteenth. More discussion is necessary to plan this event.
Ad Hoc Subcommittees
