Description
Developments in Ferguson, Missouri, after the death of Michael Brown, reveal ongoing tension in American race relations about law, housing, economic opportunity, policing and social media. Ferguson demands a conversation. As a community and an institution of education, we should be asking questions even if we don’t have all the answers.
Please join us for a panel and discussion.
Panel will include:
- Valerie Hart-Craig, African American Cultural Center
- Jeff Lorick, City of Terre Haute Human Relations Commission
- Lisa Decker, Department of Criminology and Criminal Justice
- Ashley Moore, Black Student Union
- Jerrell Richmond, philosophy major
- Ruth Fairbanks, Interdisciplinary Programs and Department of History
- Anthonisha Humphrey, ISU NAACP
Sponsored by Interdisciplinary Programs, the African American Cultural Center and the Department of History and African and African American Studies.
