2020 brought us more than a pandemic. During this unprecedented time, our country has been asked to confront the glaring inequities that have existed for years between the races. As the anniversary of George Floyd’s murder nears, we ask ourselves if the marches and protests, in our country and around the globe, have affected real change. Has the daily existence of the members of the Black/African-American community changed significantly? Join Black/African-American members of the Hopkins community as they engage in a conversation centered around their experiences this year. Following this livestream, we invite participants to join our panelists in small group conversations via Zoom during which we will explore these 2 questions:
1) What positive changes have you seen in the last year?
2) What gives you hope? What do you think needs to happen next?
Come prepared to listen, engage, reflect, and share experiences.
