In partnership with the Oakley Center, Office of Institutional Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, and Pathways for Inclusive Excellence, Just Futures will be hosting a series of online roundtables. The Williams College Spring '22 roundtable series "Entwined: Indigenous, Afro-Indigenous, African American" focuses on four themes central to communities: Spirituality, Security, Sovereignties, and Freedom. Academics, artists, and activists will discuss communal agency and historical/contemporary justice. The Mystic Seaport Museum advisory community developed the concept "Entwined" to encompass Indigenous, African, Afro-Indigenous, African American Spirituality and Sovereignty.
This roundtable series has concluded. Click HERE to watch the recordings.
