Join the Rainbow PUSH Coalition, Citizenship Education Fund, and PUSH Excel for its annual international convention.
From July 15-19, the Rainbow PUSH Coalition (RPC) — an international human and civil rights organization founded by Rev. Jesse L. Jackson, Sr. — will hold its annual convention in Chicago, Illinois. This year’s convention theme is “The Perilous Journey from Freedom to Equality." The convention will feature many distinguished session speakers on topics of educational equity and shaping public policy at the state and federal levels of government.
RPC seeks to empower people through the effective use of grassroots advocacy, issue orientation, and connections between the greater community and the disenfranchised. The organization also supports research on key policy issues, collects data on non-partisan related initiatives, and organizes seminars and public awareness campaigns on a variety of policy concerns. RPC additionally advances the democratic principles of civic virtue and human rights in order to improve life opportunities for those who have been marginalized and disaffected.
