Tuesday, February 9, February 23, and March 9 7:00PM-9:00PM Via the Internet in Your Own Space Back by popular demand! Presented by the Network for Social Justice and Social Capital Inc, this series is designed as a number of intentional conversations around core tenets of a racial justice approach. The aim is to give participants, regardless of their past experience (or lack thereof) with the subject matter, the language and tools to have grounded conversation around race and racism, taking steps to disrupt it on the micro level (challenging perceptions within themselves), and also in small scale conversations with family, friends and colleagues.

Book Talk with E. Dolores Johnson: A memoir of secrets, separation, and transformation that chronicles four generations who overturned forbidden race-mixing norms amidst America's persistent bigotry

March 24, 2021, 7:30 PM - 9:00 PM @ Via Zoom in your own space!

E. Dolores Johnson tells the story of her Black father and White mother, who fled Indiana and its antimiscegenation laws forbidding their relationship and secretly married in Buffalo, NY in the 1940s. Societal norms dictated that their child's birth certificate indicate that she was Black, erasing her mother's White blood from her identity. The Boston Globe said Say I'm Dead aims "a potent lens at what it means to be biracial and [shines] more light on the racism that continues to sicken this country every day." Join us for a webinar with Ms. Johnson. Register at https://www.eventbrite.com/e/book-talk-tickets-140856823551
