AMPLIFY LATINX CAFECITOS POWER BREAKFAST - FEBRUARY 2020 Massachusetts
ranks amongst the top in education, healthcare, and the economy. Yet,
in stark contrast Latinos and African Americans in Massachusetts face
the steepest socio-economic disparity in the country.
Join US, along with our co-hosts, Reevx Labs
[https://www.berkshirebank.com/Reevx-Labs] and Madison Park Community
Development Corporation [http://www.madison-park.org/], for an Amplify
Latinx Cafecito Power Breakfast celebrating Black History Month and
Afro-Latinidad. Our "fire starters" speakers will address the
inter-relationship between race and inequality and the major factors
that impact our communities. We hope to inspire a lively discussion
about the barriers and opportunities for civic engagement and economic
mobility as communities of color, through the lens of the Diaspora and
the Afro-Latino experience. Let's continue using our collective power
to make a difference for our communities of color in Massachusetts.
