Book in Common Faculty Workshop: Breaking Chains, Building Bridges

Tuesday, Apr. 16, 2024, 1–2:30 p.m.

Facilitated by Dr. Nandi Crosby.

Envision a future where we can dismantle the complex web of mass incarceration and pave the way for justice and equality. This presentation, inspired by Clint Smith's "How the Word is Passed" and Dr. Nandi Crosby's "Prisoners I Once Loved: A Memoir," invites us on a journey toward compassion. Through lively and interactive slides, we will confront our biases and explore the principles of racial equity, diversity, and inclusion. We'll address the individual and systemic obstacles that fuel disparity and exclusion. This session is not just an academic exercise; it's a call to action, aiming to ignite a unified push for meaningful reform in our hearts and in our laws. Together, we'll explore how to transform our society into one where liberty and justice aren't just ideals, but realities for all.
