Upswell On Demand

Upswell 2020 Main Stage
Dr. Chenjerai Kumanyika, Bernie Williams

Where did the notion of “whiteness” come from, and what does it mean? Dr. Chenjerai Kumanyika explores the intersections of social justice and emerging media in the cultural and creative industries, the disproportionate impact of COVID-19 on communities of color, and what we must do to ensure that pandemic recovery includes all of our nation’s communities. Plus, GRAMMY nominee (and NY Yankee All Star) Bernie Williams performs.  Watch Now
