In Legal Terms: MCJ

The Mississippi Center for Justice is about advancing racial and economic justice. We could take a week to talk about everything they do there, but we’ve only got President and CEO Vangela Wade for the next hour to learn about their work and upcoming events.The Mississippi Center for Justice opened its doors in 2003 with a simple mission: dismantling the policies that keep Mississippi at the bottom of nearly every indicator of human well-being. If you’d like to help with that – consider registering to vote. You can print off a voter registration application from the Secretary of State’s website or maybe ask your county’s circuit clerk’s office to mail you an application.The MS Center for Justice - They’re some busy folks! There’s a Health Law – lunch and learn in Indianola next week in addition to a Fair Housing and Expungement Education event in Gulfport. The 3rd week of October holds a Small Farmer’s Conference, a Social Justice Empowerment Brunch, the Champions of Justice Signature Event. and the Great Mississippi Road Trip scheduled. We haven’t even made it out of the month. There are more events on their calendar with many more months of events taking place.Their website has ways to donate, their social media links, events, and ways to “join their fight”. https://mscenterforjustice.org/Look for the Legacy Leadership podcast of MPB Think Radio's Money TalksPast podcasts with MS Center for Justice staff:05/07/24 Robert McDuff MCJ10/17/23 Champions of Justice - MCJ 08/01/23 Expungements   03/14/23 Loans05/24/22  MCJ Heirs' Property01/25/22 Educational Rights11/09/21  Heirs' Property Help01/12/21 Asylum and Immigration         Hosted on Acast.
