About
Us
The
United People of Color Caucus
(TUPOCC) of the
National
Lawyer's Guild (NLG) is an alliance of law students, legal
workers, attorneys and other people of color within the NLG
community.
The necessity of such an organization is borne from the
historical context of the capitalist United States where
economic prowess is dependent on the furthered and continued
subjugation of
people of color, women, the poor, queers and other oppressed
people. We are dedicated to fostering and supporting the
growth
and empowerment of all people of color, particularly within
the
organization of the NLG.
Membership is open to all members of the NLG community who
self-identify as people of color. There will be no
arbitrary exclusion from membership on the basis of sexuality,
religion, gender, gender presentation or identity, sexual
orientation, disability or age.
