Grappling with Racial Injustice
St. Alban’s Engages presents:
Slavery & the Old School Tie: Shouldering Responsibility for an Alma Mater’s Role in the Slave Trade.
Tuesday, March 2, 7-8 pm
Our four-part series began with the personal story behind Katrina Browne’s discovery of her ancestor’s complicity in the slave trade. Session two continued with a presentation on ways that individuals can work to form new personal narratives that can bring us closer to becoming the beloved community. This coming Tuesday, in our third session of Grappling with Racial Injustice, we will learn about what institutions and institutional leaders can do for future generations as they mitigate the often-racist histories of their past. Our presenter, Richard Cellini, will tell us about Georgetown University’s deep complicity in the antebellum slave economy and discuss the possible implications for Georgetown and other esteemed institutions of higher learning today. We hope that you can join us.
An email with a link to the presentation will be distributed via the St. Alban’s email distribution list the day before the event. To add an email address to our list, contact Charles Porter. For information regarding the series, email Jim Quigley.
