Inspired by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s enduring question about the future of justice and democracy, this year’s Conversations on Race program will ask a timely question: Where do we go from here—and why does it matter now? It will feature a panel discussion exploring issues related to race, history, and community (read more about the panelists here). Hosted at Seton Hall University, this year’s conversation will explore how historical cycles--from slavery and Reconstruction to the Civil Rights Movement, and the struggle for equality--continue to shape our present moment. The discussion will consider how communities can respond to rising racism, political polarization, and the influence of social media and misinformation. The evening will conclude with a call to action, offering participants practical ways to stay engaged—from advocacy and community dialogue to everyday acts that help defend truth, inclusion, and justice. RSVP here today.
