Webinar:Policing Black Bodies: How Black Lives are Surveilled & How to Work for Change
Tuesday, June 30, 2020, 4:00 PM - 5:00 PM EDT
Category: Webinars
Featuring Drs. Angela Hattery and Earl Smith; Moderated by Robert Patillo. The events unfolding across our nation today renew a long-standing call for fundamental changes to our nation’s institutions. While today’s cries carry the echoes from the protests following the deaths of Trayvon Martin, Freddie Gray, and so many other Black people killed by the police, and the hopes for change from the marches of the Civil Rights Movement, the current story of race, racism, and white privilege in America has its roots firmly planted in over 400 years of history. It is by fully understanding our nation’s past legacy of chattel slavery that we can begin to combat our current social structures that perpetuate institutional racism. Register here! |
