David S. Derezotes, PhD, Professor, College of Social Work and Director, Peace and Conflict Studies Program, College of Humanities, will continue as our facilitator.
We have decided to read: White Fragility: Why It’s So Hard for White People to Talk about Racism by Robin Diangelo and MAY follow that with reading Just Mercy: A Story of Justice and Redemption by Bryan Stevenson.
