Friday February 27, 12-1pm EST, Rally for USAID

From: https://afsa.org/press 

This rally will take place one year after the "clap-out" for USAID staff when laid off public servants were forced to pack up their belongings and vacate USAID headquarters.

The event will feature former USAID staff as speakers and will serve to remind the public of the commitment to service that the agency represented and of the ways in which that spirit endures.
