<div>Know Your Rights Forum in Fresno a Success
On June 26, SALDEF conducted a Know Your Rights forum for the Sikh American community of Fresno, CA. The forum, attended by over 150 community members, allowed the sangat to engage with and voice their concerns to representatives of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC).
The purpose of SALDEF's Know Your Rights forums is to (1) educate community members about their rights related to bias or harassment in the workplace, schools, and with law enforcement (2) introduce community members to agencies and groups that can address complaints, incidents, or issues.
Given the recent hate crimes against Sikh Americans in California (see links below), members of the Fresno community expressed concern about racially motivated violence to FBI Supervisory Special Agent, Harriet Dugal.
