Tomorrow I was supposed to present a keynote, Unapologetically Black: Afro-Latinx Culture and Identity to the National Credit Union Administration, a federal agency. Today less than 24 hours, due to the executive order that 45 signed 10 days ago my gig was canceled. The folks
I worked with for months at this agency did not even know until the "head of the agency" had called me and then told them. To their credit they called me after she did to let me know what occurred and how sorry and disappointed they were.
Of course I am not the only one that this is happening too but I share so folks know that this is really happening and for gig economy workers like me a cancellation especially when you have put in hours into a presentation and turned down other opportunities is a blow.
But I have been doing this for a long time and have a bomb ass lawyer. They will defiantly be receiving a bill for my time.
