Solidarity Saturday Launches Fall Series, “Power Back to the People,” beginning August 13 

Solidarity Saturdays, a program of the ND Voices Network, returns August 13th with the launch of its fall series “Power Back to the People.” Solidarity Saturdays is a virtual space for North Dakotans to build communities of empowered and informed advocates so we can raise their voices, support each other, and work for justice and equity. 

The five-part fall series focuses on topics that impact North Dakotans and their ability to participate in democracy, and examines reproductive healthcare, voting rights, elections, and the state legislative process. Solidarity Saturdays meets August through December on the second Saturday of each month at 10am CT. Registration is required: bit.ly/SolSatFall2022

The first program in the series is North Dakota in a Post-Roe World, with a facilitated conversation on the history of reproductive rights in North Dakota, the state’s abortion trigger law, and how people can advocate for abortion access. The program will feature Amy Jacobson, Executive Director of Prairie Action North Dakota, and Katie Christensen, North Dakota State Director of Planned Parenthood North Central States.
