Class Description
Recognized nationally and internationally as an expert on race relations, Dr. Tatum remains approachable and believes every conversation about race and every question posed about racial justice moves us forward in the ongoing struggle to dismantle racism—considered America’s original sin. In this far-reaching conversation with Dr. Tatum—moderated by Rev. Andrea Ayvazian—a panel of community leaders will pose questions to Dr. Tatum and also respond to questions from the audience. Following introductory comments from Dr. Tatum and our panel of community leaders, we will open the floor to the gathered group to ask Dr. Tatum and our panelists questions and reflect with them on next steps in the struggle for racial justice. We anticipate that the exchange will be informal, open-ended, and honest. Bring questions, come ready to share, and be moved by Dr. Tatum, an extraordinary leader in the field of racial justice, and inspired by local community leaders who will share insights, lessons learned, and how we forge the path ahead. All welcome.
(Copies of Dr. Tatum’s book, Why Are All the Black Kids Sitting Together in the Cafeteria and Other Conversations About Race, will be available for purchase at the close of the event.)
