On Thanksgiving Day, Sharpton and NAN will celebrate the holiday by hosting a meal distribution at the House of Justice, a yearly tradition benefiting hundreds of underserved New Yorkers, which is open to all people. Food will be served from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Last year’s event marked the first time since the start of the pandemic in which NAN welcomed sit-down dinner to the House of Justice. The event will welcome New York City and State elected officials, community advocates, and civil rights leaders to help distribute meals.
