Digital Program: How Americans Can Join Across Racial Differences: Lessons From Apartheid

The recent Black Lives Matter protests sweeping through the nation have made many Americans question their own beliefs and long held assumptions about race and privilege in America. In this talk, Manju Soni, a longtime resident of Connecticut, and author of When Lions Roared: How Brave Young People Defied Apartheid, will give a brief overview of her experiences growing up in South Africa under the system of racial separation called Apartheid, and draw parallels with America’s own past and present experiences with racism.
