Diversity Speaker Series with Cedric King, Tim Wise, and Sandra Clark

Description

From the Greater Burlington Multicultural Resource Center:

In this Keynote, Cedric King takes us back to Tuesday, September 11, 2001. Cedric details what the falling of those two towers ultimately meant to him, his military unit, and ultimately his impending future in becoming a double amputee. Master Sergeant (ret) King encourages the audience to serve in whatever capacity they can to create better families, communities and a better Nation!

Tim Wise is among the most prominent anti-racist writers and educators in the United States. He has spent the past 25 years speaking to audiences in all 50 states, on over 1500 college and high school campuses, at hundreds of professional and academic conferences, and to community groups across the country.

Sandra Clark is vice president for news and civic dialogue at WHYY, the Philadelphia region’s leading public media outlet. Clark is a long-time vocal advocate for diversity, inclusion and equity, and closing the power and trust gap between journalists and communities of color. Clark was previously managing editor at the Philadelphia Inquirer, where she served on the executive leadership team, led diversity efforts, and created a revenue-driven innovation team. Under her leadership, the Inquirer was awarded a Pulitzer Prize for criticism in 2014.
