Panel: Baltimore Racial Justice Action- Looking Forward from the 2024 Election
Andy appeared on a panel hosted by Baltimore Racial Justice Action, as part of their “13th of the Month” series. The description is below
Grace Lee Boggs said “Every crisis, actual or impending, needs to be viewed as an opportunity to bring about profound changes in our society. Going beyond protest organizing, visionary organizing begins by creating images and stories of the future that help us imagine and create alternatives to the existing system.” This existing system is firmly rooted in white supremacy. Now that the 2024 election is over, the urgency and necessity of imagining and creating alternatives to the way this white supremacist electoral system functions at state, local, and national levels is more clear than ever. Catch up on this BRJA 13th event from November 2024 in which we discussed civic participation, power, and politics with BRJA moderator Julia Scott and panelists Charly Carter, Andy Ellis, and Lawrence Grandpre.
