SUMMARY:50th Annual Letelier-Moffitt Human Rights Award
DESCRIPTION:IPS invites you to our 50th Annual Letelier-Moffitt Human Rights Awards! Come celebrate five decades of uplifting unsung human rights defenders and honoring our movement heroes together. \nThe in-person event will begin with a catered reception at 5:30 pm ET. The ceremony will begin at 7:00 pm ET\, and will finish with a closing reception at 8:00 pm ET \nGet your ticket today to secure a 25% discounted Early Bird ticket while they still last! \nJoin us to uplift our incredible awardees\, Unidos MN and La Liga Sindical Obrera Mexicana. Both our Awardees represent communities that have built serious power to defend their rights. \n\nMinnesotans organized as Unidos MN to protect their community from ICE violence and inspired the whole country with their mass resistance.\nLa Liga is energizing the North American labor movement by mobilizing unions across Mexico to use their seat at the bargaining table and stand up to transnational corporations.\n\nWe are going all-out for our 50th and will have live music\, food and drinks\, memorabilia\, and lots of fanfare. We’re reaching far back to invite as many IPS alumni as possible for this milestone! We cherish these awards as a time to convene our community and celebrate our allies’ hard work\, so please extend this invitation to all who want to come together. \nBuy today to secure a 25% discounted Early Bird ticket while they still last!  Full price\, in-person tickets will open soon. We offer a range of ticket prices to keep this event accessible to all who’d like to join. \nWe are also looking for co-sponsors to help make this event happen.
