Program Description

Description

During this monthly series, we'll discuss important, but potentially uncomfortable, issues related to race, racism and social justice with the help of books, movies, art and/or guest speakers. Presented in partnership with the City of Worthington Community Relations Commission.

November activity: Emily Dringenberg, an assistant professor in the Department of Engineering Education at The Ohio State University, will explain how racism is embedded in our educational systems through the idea of being "smart." She will also share ways to recognize and disrupt smartness as an oppressive force.

Participants will meet via Zoom. When registering, please make sure your email address is correct as Zoom invitations will be emailed 24 hours before the event.
