P.R.I.A Launch with Dionne Blackman-Moeller of Opportunity Junction
You're Invited! Launch of the P.R.I.A. Series – Remembering to Reclaim: Glancing Back and Pushing Forward
LeaderSpring Center invites all who identify as leaders—across roles, sectors, and lived experiences—to join us for the launch of our P.R.I.A. (Pause. Remember. Imagine. Act.) Series on Tuesday, July 22nd from 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM PT via Zoom.
We begin this powerful three-part series with the inaugural session:
“Remembering to Reclaim: Glancing Back and Pushing Forward.”
Facilitated by LeaderSpring Center alumna Dionne Blackman-Moeller, Class of 2020 Emerging Leaders of Color East Contra Costa County. This session will offer a grounding space to reflect, reimagine, and lead with clarity and purpose amid today’s urgent social realities. In a time when social justice, equity, and democracy are increasingly under attack, the act of remembering becomes a radical one. Together, we will explore how memory can serve as a tool for resistance and a spark for collective action.
In this session, participants will be invited to:
Reconnect with histories of resistance, organizing, and solidarity
Acknowledge the ongoing impacts of systemic oppression
Draw inspiration from our legacies to inform the path forward
This offering is not just a reflection—it’s a call to reclaim our power, values, and vision for a more just future.
