PART 1 – ANTI-BLACKNESS IN THE LATINX COMMUNITY

Wednesday, August 5, 2020

7:00pm – 8:15 PM EDT

Anti-Blackness within the Latinx community prevails in our history, language, beauty standards, and how we engage with our Afro-Latino community. If non-Black Latinos are serious about supporting Black Lives Matter activists, we must reckon with anti-Blackness within our community first. This panel aims to discuss the historical role of anti-Blackness in Latinx society, how it continues to manifest today, and how non-Black Latinos can be better advocates for change for the Black community.

PART 2 – POLICY SOLUTIONS TO COMBAT RACIAL INEQUALITY

Thursday August 6, 2020

7:00pm – 8:15 PM EDT

This panel will explore critical policy topics that impact the Black community – specifically police funding, discrimination in housing and employment, to name a few. We will explore what it means to “defund the police”, what fair housing and employment law should look like, and how systemic racism more broadly impacts Black, Indigenous, and People of Color.
