How do we find our voice? How do we find our path in a culture that seeks to define us by single narratives of identity?

Please join us this Saturday at 9PM EST for another special dialogue between members of the Black and Asian communities, as part of the continuing June 19th Dialogues series.

Our speakers will include three prominent Black female leaders, including Cleveland's own Julie Patton. These women will answer questions written by various Asian American students from across the nation. Come join us as we dig deeper into our commonalities and confront the conflicts that seek to divide us as humans.
