Brave and Moving Stories by Black African-Heritage and White Campus Colleagues

As many of us reel from recent world events, we find ourselves questioning our fundamental beliefs and confronting societal realities that have long hidden in plain sight. Please join Cheryl Cofield and Pearl Alexander of Institute Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion for a community storytelling circle, where you will bear witness to the healing balm of true stories as our brave and courageous colleagues share heartfelt personal narratives related to their journeys with race in America.

Be among the first to hear brilliantly scored race-related stories from the Summer 2020 installation of the Transformative Narratives story collection, and begin or continue doing the inner work necessary to co-create a beloved community where we can all breathe freely and fully.

Grab lunch or tea, and join one of four events for whatever portion of time your schedule permits.
