Our monthly meeting of Yankton County Democrats will be held on Monday, May 8th, from 5:30 - 6:30 pm in the Quiet Room at the Yankton Community Library.

This month, we will hear from a Taneeza Islam, Founder and Executive Director of South Dakota Voices for Peace and its lobbying counterpart South Dakota Voices for Justice. Taneeza, a 2022 candidate for mayor of Sioux Falls, will talk about the organizations’ work to build power and enable healing in immigrant, refugee, and Muslim communities by amplifying their voices and working in solidarity with all who dismantle bigotry and racism. Taneeza will discuss work during the 2023 Legislative Session to promote diversity, inclusion, and an anti-racist South Dakota and the work that will continue to happen to realize that vision.

All are welcome to attend and participate in our monthly meeting, which occur on the second Monday of every month at 5:30 pm.
