Provost’s “Brown Bag” drop-in session — The Urgency of Anti-Racism

The Urgency of Anti-Racism

Drawing upon our shared reading of Ijeoma Oluo’s So You Want to Talk About Race, Eric Davis will kick-off a discussion about the meaning and urgency of anti-racism. What does anti-racism mean to each of us and for how we live our lives? What does it mean for what we do in each of our areas at UFV? How do we take what we learn from Oluo (and others) and apply it in our areas at UFV?
