Description
Black Women have historically and continue to play a pivotal, often overlooked role in U.S. social, cultural and political dynamics. This in-person symposium will centerย the professional and lived experiences of accomplished Black Women who will share with us their stories and insights about working in the field of early childhood. Through discussion, open dialogue, and collective exploration, we hope to both celebrate progress made and confront the inequalities that persist so that all children, particularly those from marginalized communities, can thrive in the world they truly deserve.
