One Book Event: PVCC Symposium on Race & Racism
One Book Event: Monday, November 2nd
6:00pm - 9:00pm
Would you like to share your experiences regarding racial inequality and be a voice of change? Would you like to hear about racial inequality from another’s perspective?
Join us, Monday, November 2nd, 2020 from
6:00pm – 9:00pm for a virtual symposium on Race and Racism.
In response to this year’s One Book: How to Be an
Antiracist, by Ibram X. Kendi and the growing national consciousness of
racial inequality, PVCC will be holding this symposium the day before the 2020
election. This symposium will provide a platform for individuals to share
stories, thoughts, concerns, research, and other observations regarding racial
inequality.
If you wish to participate as a speaker, submit your presentation here.
Students, faculty, and staff are invited to present at the
event. We are accepting a wide array of expression, including, but not limited
to: essays, poems, open letters, songs, dances, interviews, etc. You may even
submit anonymously. After the event, we hope to present the submissions to
representatives in state and local government, pending the approval of
individual discussants.
