Heather McGhee, bestselling author of The Sum of Us: What Racism Costs Everyone, will kick off our speaker series Now & Next: The State of Race, Today and Tomorrow on August 25. Register today!
To open up this series, we’ll bring in some of today’s top thinkers on racial equity for a conversation on the state of race: Why are we seeing backlash to social progress? How do we move forward in a country that seems increasingly afraid or unwilling to talk explicitly about race? Where are we seeing signs of hope?
