However, these wonderful videos have less than 600 views each. When we watch and listen, we begin to understand the experiences of our colleagues. Let& #39;s amplify their voices. Today is an excellent day to set aside a couple hours to watch these together as a community.
Shout out to a few who worked tirelessly to organize and produce these roundtables:
@AngelaMoore111
- Chair of the @UBCP_ACTRA Diversity and Inclusion Committee.
@OmariAkilNewton - former Chair.
