Black History Month: Dante King Workshops

EvCC's Equity & Social Justice Division and the Equity and Social Justice Committee are pleased to welcome acclaimed scholar, educator, author and speaker Dante King to EvCC as part of our Black History Month observances.

Dante King, author of "The 400 Year Holocaust," untangles the complexities of whiteness, anti-blackness and racism, and particularly illuminates the systemic and often subtle structures that perpetuate inequality. His work also unveils the cultural forces at work behind the backlash against the tools of academic theoretical inquiry and academic freedom itself.

Mr. King will present on Feb. 28 and 29 on "Examining the Organizational and Brand Value of Whiteness, Racial Politics, and Anti-Blackness in America."

• Student Workshop: 3-6 p.m. Wednesday, Feb. 28, Jackson Center Wilderness Room: This session is for students only. Lecture style with questions and answers.
• Faculty and Staff Workshop: 2-5 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 29, Gray Wolf Hall rooms 386 and 388: This session is for faculty and staff and is open to all members of the EvCC campus community and invited guests.
