Bet on Black: A Book Signing & Community Conversation with Eboni K. Williams

Event Description

In Bet on Black, Eboni reframes the narrative about Black life in America—not as one of struggle alone, but of possibility, resilience, triumph, and forward motion. This event will feature a candid conversation moderated by Ayana Harry Dudley, NYC Political News Correspondent, followed by a book signing.

Location: Fordham Law School, Room 3-03 – 150 W 62nd Street, New York, NY
Date & Time: Tuesday, October 28, 2025 | 6:30 PM – 9:00 PM

At this event, she will:

  • Share compelling excerpts from her book
  • Reflect on her journey and how she lives the message of Bet on Black
  • Lead a community conversation on power, identity, and collective movement
  • Engage in a Q&A and book signing

This is more than a talk, it is a call to mobilize. We invite you to come with curiosity, questions, and a readiness to act. Let’s collectively affirm that Black life in America is not just surviving, it is thriving, evolving, and rising.

Book Sales

Copies of Bet on Black will be available for purchase at the event. Please plan to buy your book on-site so it can be signed directly by Eboni K. Williams.

Why You Should Attend

Because representation matters. Truth matters. Our stories matter. This is an opportunity to gather, connect, envision, and push forward. Whether you’re already familiar with Eboni’s work or discovering her now, this is your chance to engage directly, ask meaningful questions, and leave inspired to create impact in your community.
