Monday Motivation, Build Blue & NU Homecoming

[View this email in your browser]( Michael’s Monday Motivation While the Republicans tried to shut down the Government, October is starting off strong for KAIROS. Build Blue Week, San Francisco Human Rights Commission's Pathway to Parity and then my Homecoming at Northwestern vs. Howard. It's a week that shows that no matter where we are in the country: KAIROS is where Color sees OUR Power! Weekly KAIROS Conversation with: Colonel Pam Stevenson Democratic Candidate, Attorney General in Kentucky Born and raised in Louisville, Colonel Pam’s family has lived in Kentucky for generations. They call her Colonel Pam because she served 27 years in the military and retired as a Colonel. During her time in the Air Force, Pam served as a lawyer taking on the toughest jobs: negotiating a hostage crisis, prosecuting violent crimes such as rape and incest and working with the State Department. After leaving the service, Pam continued her work as a lawyer, providing free legal services to veterans in her non-profit law firm.  In 2020, she was elected to the Kentucky Statehouse.
