Book Talk - 1619 Project: The Systems of Race and Caste in Nonprofits

How do the systems of race and caste continue to show up in nonprofits today?

The 1619 Project, by Nikole Hannah-Jones, speaks directly to our current moment, "contextualizing the systems of race and caste that still define so much of American life today. It reveals the hidden truths around our nation’s founding and construction—and the way that the legacy of slavery did not end with emancipation, but continues to shape contemporary American life".

How do these systems continue to perpetuate white supremacy and white culture in nonprofits? What should white-led nonprofit leaders do to dismantle racism? And for Global Majority leaders, what are our responsibilities in this moment?

Please read Nikole Hannah-Jones' book, The 1619 Project, prior to this book talk.

Please note that this event is on Tuesday, June 14, 2022 from 4:30pm-6:00pm PT/7:30pm-9pm ET.
