Thank You to Everyone That Came Out & Supported The 2019 Westside Pride Summit
During the Summit, representatives from education and business, and elected officials and community leaders will gather to discuss the issues most relevant to the local black community. Presidential candidates seeking support will have the opportunity to speak and take a few questions on topics regarding systemic poverty, adverse health outcomes for the poor, academic achievement, unemployment, affordable housing, and social justice.
