Monday, February 2, 7 PM:  Commonweal Conversations, Topic: "Resistance & Historical Memory" (Virtual) The Civil Rights Act of 1964 made discrimination based on race, color, sex, religion, and nationality illegal in businesses, schools, and programs in the United States and led to the creation of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. Under the Trump administration, the Commission, which was created to protect against discriminatory practices and support worker's rights, has now been tasked with eliminating diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs.
