Dr. Nkenge Friday, Assistant Vice Chancellor for Strategic Initiatives in the Office of Diversity and Inclusion will be speaking with us at our September Wednesday Workshop. Please locate Eve's email on 9/3 to find the materials to review prior to this workshop. Here is what Dr. Nkensaid about the readings and a suggested video:
I have attached to this email 2 articles for participant consumption and a fascinating examination of U.S. history on a recent segment of Last Week Tonight by John Oliver (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hsxukOPEdgg&feature=youtu.be&t=312), that I would encourage participants to watch for more context. I would begin the video (which the link does) at 5:12. All in all, this material should take upwards of 35 minutes of participant time prior to the presentation. Please note, these resources and more, can be found on our racial equity resource page (https://diversity.unl.edu/racial-equity-resources).
