Honoring Our Shared Humanity
Despite major advances following the civil rights movement, including educational and professional advances, bigotry and racism towards non-Whites continues today. This panel will examine the roots and interconnectedness of various forms of bigotry, including Islamophobia, antisemitism, racism and xenophobia, that are directed against Muslim Americans, Jewish Americans, African Americans, Indigenous Peoples, Latino Americans, and Asian Americans. Panelists will address how political polarization in the current environment impacts their communities. They will also discuss how we can come together to honor our shared humanity. Working from the well-established social science principle that face-to-face education and engagement are the most effective ways to dispel prejudice, the panelists will participate in a group discussion with the audience and conclude with calls to action to counter prejudice and hate while building an inclusive society based on mutual understanding and solidarity.
Throughout the event the panelists will entertain questions and have a discussion with the audience.
Panelists: to be announced.
