A Just Chi
A Just Chi is our program for any and all community members who want to join the movement for racial equity. A Just Chi members have monthly meetings at the Advancing Justice | Chicago office to build community, learn about issues, and plan campaigns.
A Just Chi currently has two working groups: Immigrant Justice and Police Accountability
A Just Chi meetings are on the third Wednesdays of every month. For more info please follow our Facebook events.
About
Over the summer, A Just Chi members tabled and canvassed at the Argyle Night Market in Uptown to engage community members around several campaigns. In 2018, members gathered signatures to support the VOICES Act, and had conversations with community members on police accountability and the #NoCopAcademy campaign.
A Just Chi leaders work closely with leaders from KINETIC and I Speak Power, collaborating on the annual Grassroots Leadership Assembly. The Assembly, attended by members from all three programs, helps to set Advancing Justice | Chicago’s campaign priorities for the coming year.
