Colored Conventions Project, and our college’s budding Center for Black Digital Research, our colleagues Shirley Moody-Turner and Gabrielle Foreman have been organizing #COVIDWhileBlackPA, a roundtable discussion that is taking place from 1:00-3:00 pm today. If your schedule allows, please do register for this virtual event at https://bit.ly/covidPAroundtable. This virtual roundtable discussion will bring together civic, cultural, and thought leaders from around the state t...o discuss the epidemic’s impact on African American political engagement and community building, as well as similarities between the present and past eras of mass mobilization. Given the broad coalition of organizations that will be represented at this event, this roundtable is important public-facing work that speaks to our University’s land grant calling to serve the residents of the Commonwealth, and fosters dense and multiple partnerships beyond University Park.
