LWVPA Focus on Racial Justice: extensive resources available ​

On June 23, 2020, the board of the League of Women Voters of Palo Alto declared that addressing systemic racism would be a 2020-2021 priority for our League. See the full statement here. In this context, we offer a set of resource lists, categorized by the medium in which they appear: article/blog, book, podcast, film, video, Zoom, etc, plus offerings from several organizations with yet more sources of racial justice information. We hope this tool will help you find whatever resources you seek on this topic.

2020-21 Virtual Luncheon Speaker Series 

Palo Alto's Virtual Luncheon Speaker Series will soon have been going for a full year. The presentations have been very well received. To date, programs have covered COVID-19's impacts on democracy and on communities and individuals; housing; education; and climate. Click on the series title above to see what's coming up and to read brief descriptions of, and view, our past programs.

The purpose of the League is to Make Democracy Work®.  We:

  • Register and educate voters through our work in VOTER SERVICES
  • Take Action based on our positions through ADVOCACY
  • Inform and educate the community on issues by League PROGRAMS

City Council, School Board, Human Relations Commission, and Board of Supervisors Meetings

Because the COVID-19 global pandemic makes it unsafe for the public to gather, all regular meetings of the Palo Alto City Council, PAUSD Board of Education and Human Relations Commission will be live-streamed until further notice. No physical meeting place will be provided. Also, certain meetings of the Board of Supervisors and Board Policy Committees will be held by teleconference only. 

​See this article for how to live-stream and participate in meetings of these public bodies.
