 Coming together logoJoin us on Thursday, January 14, 2016 at 7:00 pm in the Woodbury Room for a screening of Cracking the Codes – The System of Racial Inequality.  This is the next event in a film & discussion series which began in the fall of 2014 and continues to look at issues of race.  A facilitated discussion will be held after the screening.
This film from Shakti Butler asks America to talk about the causes and consequences of systemic inequity. Cracking the Codes: The System of Racial Inequity features stories from racial justice leaders and others of many different racial backgrounds. Van Jones says, “Cracking the Codes challenges us to build a world that works for everyone.”
