Join DIVERSITY UNITED on Tuesday, February 15, 2022, as historian, Rabbi Sholomo Levy and attorney, educator, and activist, Junius Williams lead us in a discussion of “The Racial Legacy of the Civil War.”
We will explore the deep and lasting roots of systemic racism, the battle of Confederate monuments, and the ongoing effort to surpress Black votes.

My Body Is a Confederate Monument.” You can watch the video on Facebook by clicking here and read the Op-Ed by clicking here.
