AARN We Wear Black Watch Party
The African American Resource Network (AARN) Committee invites you to our We Wear Black Watch Party. Wearing black represents a visible sign of unity and solidarity with those who continue to face injustice, prejudice, and inequity in our country. We stand alongside YMCA’s across the nation to affirm our commitment to equity, dignity, and greater opportunity for future generations to thrive.
