Guest Speakers Kendrick Tate and Autumn Parker; Coordinators Mary Desmone and Tabitha Wolf. The guest speakers are partners with Mary in the Erie Racial Justice Policy Initiative. They will share their thoughts on the journey from current Reality and Equality to the desired Equity and Justice. Kendrick Tate will explain what equity is, why it’s different from equality, and detail how we can work to achieve it. Autumn Parker, will expand upon how practices of equity result in the establishment of justice, “dismantling systems and practices of oppression and replacing them with ones that promote equity.” Audience participation in her interactive activity is welcomed!
