Black Educators: A Rich Tradition That Helped to Shape a Nation

Thursday, September 29, 2022 from 6 PM to 8:30 PM

We often hear about a lack of diversity among educators, but rarely do we hear about the tradition of Black educators that goes back centuries. In this presentation, Sharif El-Mekki, founder and CEO of the Center for Black Educator Development, will take us on a journey through history to discover just how integral Black educators have been to shaping this country, and the tradition of educating that they left behind. There will be a catered reception following the presentation where all guests are invited to join and network with other like-minded individuals.
