Poets Organizing Workers' Economic Rights - POWER

Hello Whittier College Students,

We are deeply disappointed and saddened by the results of the presidential election. To let our voices be heard, we would like to gather any and all students, staff, and faculty who would like to participate in chalk writing around campus to demand justice for POC, women, LGBTQ and minority peoples who are in fear of their basic human rights. We would like to emphasize our immense disagreement with the winner of the election, Donald Trump. He is not our president. He does not stand for unity. And we must fight to let our voices be heard. If you are against Trump's presidency, please join us.

We are planning to start around 7a.m. and meet outside the Campus Center. Please feel free to invite anyone to participate in this event.

Feel free to contact either:

The negotiating committee at Whittier College are getting ready for a new contract!

Today, POWER members chalked all around the Whittier College campus in support of our college workers who keep the campus clean and make our food. Here is one of the art pieces created by our very own member, Krista Fonseca.

Today and everyday, we appreciate our college workers!
