Descendants Day: Saturday, September 13 | The Center at Belvedere
 

DEC is looking forward to having you join a day full of discussion on the intersections and activism and education. Located at The Center at Belvedere, this symposium will span advocacy starting with the Civil Rights movement -- including a keynote from Carlotta Walls LaNier of the Little Rock Nine -- coming to present-day efforts, and encouraging participants to ideate on the future.

This event is for those interested in listening to and discussing the:

  • impact of activism and education on the world around us

  • need for youth on the frontlines

  • necessity of reparations for the descendants of the enslaved

Or, if you're interested in:

  • connecting with others focused on their history

  • tapping into African-American centered advocacy

  • learning more about DEC and our partner orgs

We hope to see you there!
