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.
