RootsCampLA is the convening of activists in the state. It has been the progressive event of the year for the past eight years whether your issue is maintaining democratic control of schools, worker’s rights, #BlackLivesMatter, voting rights, women’s rights, transit, racial equality, LCBTQIA, disability rights, healthcare, or housing. This isn’t your usual gathering; it’s an “unconference.” Instead of PowerPoints and “expert” panels, participants design sessions and de- cide the program. This doesn’t mean ”experts” aren’t in the room. They are – many of them are you. RootsCampLA is about fostering homegrown talent. Jointly Hosted by: Solidarity Project Advocacy Net- work and the Louis A. Berry Civil Rights and Justice Institute Southern University Law Center 2 Roosevelt Steptoe Drive, Baton Rouge, LA 70813 Further details: Roots Camp LA: https://spanlouisiana.org/rootscampla/ Registration required *Admission is free to SULC students who present an ID.
