UPCOMING EVENTS & WORKSHOPS

 

As a researcher, educator, scholar, and author, I am committed to sharing stories of Black organizing and activism with public and scholarly audiences and to creating community partnerships in the ongoing project of digital archive-building. 

As co-director of the Center for Black Digital Research/#DigBlk and a faculty director of the Black Women’s Organizing Archive, I am proud to collaborate on events that bring communities together to share in this work. I also offer workshops focused on values-driven leadership, diversity, and practices for enacting transformative change.
