Where Do We Go From Here? Why We Need Reparations for Black Americans

Dr. Brandon Crowley
Tuesday, May 25, 2021 - 7:00pm

Join Dr. Brandon Crowley as he speaks about the economic injustices that have persisted since slavery and how these injustices have led to a wealth gap between white and Black Americans. How can we as a nation go about righting these wrongs? What role would reparations play and how would eligibility be determined?
