How do we stop the war on Black America?
Featuring guest speaker KHURY PETERSEN-SMITH
Thursday, March 29th 3:30pm
Point View Lounge, Campus Center 3rd Floor
There is a war being waged against Black America. In Boston, public schools in black neighborhoods are being shuttered while families face foreclosure and long-term unemployment, Stop-and-Frisk policies and the ongoing War on Drugs have locked up millions of black and brown people in a system that many are called the “New Jim Crow”. Join in a discussion as to what we can do about these and other assaults on the black community.
