An Africa Graduate Club of Notre Dame Panel Session Explores the Intersection of Race, Ethnicity and Identity
Addressing the fallout of racial injustice and inequality requires difficult conversations that not only bring to light key issues, but also outline viable steps that can be taken in the pursuit of equity. On the 1st of July 2020, the Africa Graduate Club (AGC) of Notre Dame hosted a panel discussion to examine the complex interconnections between race, ethnicity and identity, and how they come to the fore in daily lived experiences, with the goal of proposing viable steps to eliminate racial bias. This virtual event had close to 200 participants on Zoom with several others following the discussion on the AGC’s social media platforms.
