<p class="x_xxxmsonormal">Good Morning Family,</p>
<p class="x_xxxmsonormal"> </p>
<p class="x_xxxmsonormal">As you all may recall we’ve had several conversations about our role in supporting MSSDC & Students of Color Conference. We discussed several means of support and had not officially come to a conclusion as to what that support would
 look like.</p>
<p class="x_xxxmsonormal"> </p>
<p class="x_xxxmsonormal">We currently have a request from them in the amount of $5,000 to secure a speaker for this years conference. That speaker is Linda Sasour. Most of you are aware of her advocacy and brilliance and have seen her at NCORE or FSOCC last
 year.</p>
<p class="x_xxxmsonormal"> </p>
<p class="x_xxxmsonormal">I fully support this request and urge you to do the same. Please respond to this email as soon as you can so that we can support Students of Color & MSSDC in making this conference memorable for students.</p>
