On July 14, join the Mississippi Humanities Council for the first program in a multi-part series on systemic racism in America.
The July program will address how racism exists at the systemic level in policing and criminal justice in the U.S. Panelists include Scott Colom, District Attorney for Mississippi’s 16th Judicial District; Cliff Johnson, director of the MacArthur Justice Center at the University of Mississippi School of Law; and others. Dr. Temika Simmons, MHC boardmember and director of the Local Government Leadership Institute at Delta State University, will moderate.
Future programs in the series will focus on housing, education, wealth accumulation, food access, and more.
The July 14 program will be livestreamed to the MHC’s Facebook page.
