About this Event

Join DAIP for a powerful and thought-provoking discussion that delves into the complex history of our nation—built through both free and enslaved labor—and the lasting impact on today’s economic landscape. This timely conversation will shed light on persistent disparities across industries and the evolving challenges we face in equity and inclusion.

Our esteemed panelists will navigate this critical dialogue as we confront the uncertainties surrounding EEO policies and the troubling "pausing" of Black History and other cultural heritage celebrations.

Guest Speaker: Weayonnoh Nelson-Davies, Executive Director of the Economic Progress Institute

Facilitator: La’Juan Allen, Director of Vote16USA

Don't miss this opportunity to engage in a dialogue that informs, challenges, and inspires action.
