Anti-Racism Film Series with Dr. Tara Hayes Online
As part of the City of Huntington Woods anti-racism plan, we invite you to join us for a film discussion with series with Dr. Tara Hayes, the Book & Film Club Professor. Anti-racism education allows us to stand as effective allies. Intended as an opportunity for learning and deepening our understanding, we aim to create a respectful dialogue focused on helping participants become effective allies.
To participate, screen the film in advance of the discussion and then join us at 6:30 pm via Zoom. Please register for each program and a meeting link will be emailed prior to the meeting. Each has been paired with a chapter from Dr. Kendi’s best-selling How to Be an AntiRacist. Participants are encouraged to read it in its entirety.
