Join with Native Americans & Italian Americans on Next “Solidarity Session – Bridging Cultures Against Cancel Culture”
Working together – Native American and Italian American Communities Unite to Oppose Cancel Culture
NORTHVALE, NJ, USA, May 1, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The Italian American One Voice Coalition (“IAOVC”), America’s largest independent Italian American anti-bias organization, and The Native American Guardian’s Association (“NAGA”), advocating for increased education about Native Americans, jointly announce the next in a series of collaborative sessions bringing Native American, Italian American and other communities together to oppose the pervasive threat of cancel culture. These “Solidarity Sessions – Bridging Cultures Against Cancel Culture” aim to foster understanding, promote dialogue and build solidarity among diverse groups facing challenges from cultural erasure and historical revisionism.Cancel culture has increasingly become a concerning phenomenon in today's society. It often overlooks the complexities of history and cultural context, leading to the silencing of voices and the erasure of important narratives.
Native American and Italian American communities share a common experience of marginalization and misrepresentation in mainstream discourse. Both groups have faced historical injustices and stereotypes that continue to impact their communities today. By joining forces, they aim to confront the harmful effects of cancel culture and reclaim their narratives.
“We are pleased at the collaboration and communication we achieved in the first two Solidarity Sessions,” stated Tony Henson, the new President of NAGA. “We look forward to continuing this effort of working together with our common goal of opposing the cancel culture that affects so many.”
Andre DiMino, President of IAOVC commented, "These Sessions have been a great opportunity to gain a greater understanding of our cultures and the challenges we have faced in dealing with cancel culture. We hope to see many others join in the next Solidarity Session to continue our progress.”
The next Solidarity Session will take place via Zoom on Sunday, May 19, 2024 at 7 PM Eastern. Members of the Native American and Italian American communities, as well as allies and supporters, are encouraged to attend and participate in this important dialogue.
Registration is required to join the Solidarity Session. Click the link on www.thesolidaritysessions.com to register.
