Program Description

Event Details

At a time when many organizations have put out public statements in support of Black Lives Matter and in opposition to White supremacy, dismantling our organizational inequities remains an elusive next step. Maryland Humanities invites you to join us for a speaker series focused on operationalizing racial equity work in the humanities field. Leaders from Maryland will speak to the efforts they have led in their respective organizations. Topics covered will include incorporating racial equity into hiring, where to start when leading an organization, and leading the work within a university setting.

Join Tonya Aikens, President & CEO of Howard County Library System, with moderator Alicia McLeod, Executive Director of Challenging Racism and Maryland Humanities Board Member.
