 400 years in the making

Is America finally ready to confront the past, present and future of systemic racism? What do you think?

Poets Respond

People in the street demanding the end of systemic racism, recognizing that it is embedded as normal practice, leading to discrimination in criminal justice, employment, housing, health care, political power, education, and other issues. On May 25, 2020, George Floyd was killed, sparking demonstrations around the world which continue today and brought BlackLivesMatter to the forefront.
