Ann Snitow Prize Ceremony honoring Margaret Prescod, Tuesday 10 December
Margaret Prescod, Women of Color/Global Women’s Strike and co-coordinator of Global Women’s Strike in the US, is being honored with the Ann Snitow Prize next Tuesday, December 10. More details below.
Please join us in celebrating this important acknowledgement and hear more from Margaret, by registering for the award ceremony starting at 3pm US Pacific / 4pm Mountain / 5pm Central / 6pm Eastern / 11pm UK.
Margaret will donate most of the $12,500 prize money after taxes to the Haiti Emergency Relief Fund. $1,000 will be donated to Middle East Children’s Alliance (MECA) and $1,000 to the Black Coalition Fighting Black Serial Murders for a memorial monument for the South LA Black women serial murder victims: Reclaiming Our Sisters Everywhere (ROSE)
“For me, the Ann Snitow Prize is a reminder to be steadfast in what one does, to stay true to one’s principles and to be accountable to those with the least in society, as well as those who advocate on our behalf. One never knows who recognizes the value of this work for truth and justice and/or who is paying attention. This prize is a reminder that no matter how difficult the challenges, there are those who strive to uplift, offer hope, joy, and beauty.”
