Elaine Langone Center, 256 - Center Room

Dr. Jen Fry will help us reflect how our past experiences influence our current actions and behaviors in general but also as it relates to the power of collective action and unification around a common goal, one of MLK's legacies. Dr. Fry brings an anti-racist lens to her work, understanding the importance of recognizing both the lasting impact of racism in America and how it continues today. MLK was dedicated to bringing the roots of racism to light, often highlighting the history of segregation in his speeches and encouraging folks to acknowledge the harm of racism while striving to work together. Dr. Fry will provide strategies and tools for participants to engage in uncomfortable, challenging conversations that may include both inner and outer conflict, underscoring the importance of engaging in discourse across differences.
