Happening now: How do we reduce racism and address implicit bias in Miami?
Speakers
Additional speakers to be announced
George Floyd’s brutal death ignited weeks of protests in every American city, including Miami. While the crisis is national, change will happen at the local level.
That’s why we are holding a conversation about race, bias and how we all can play a role in healing this community and transforming it into one that is more inclusive.
We have assembled a powerhouse panel to help us get there. The topic: implicit bias and the subtle language of racism.
Join us for “Breaking Point: Tackling Systemic Racism in Miami” on Monday, July 13 at 12:30 p.m. EDT. Our hour-long discussion will amplify voices from a myriad of experiences and backgrounds.
Please RSVP now to reserve your spot.
