Dear Public Voices Fellows,

Please join us on Tuesday, December 13, 2022, 7:00 PM – 8:00 PM EST for our next Expert Talk: "The Dilemmas of Taking Up Space: White Antiracist Thought Leadership," with Courtney Martin. Register here!

Courtney is the bestselling author of “Learning in Public: Lessons for a Racially Divided America from My Daughter’s School,” which describes her decision to enroll her daughter in a majority-Black local public school. While writing and promoting the book, Martin found herself tackling critical questions about the role of white thought leaders with anti-racist messages.

Courtney will explore questions around messengers, accountability, opportunity, and money with two of the nation’s most prominent white thinkers and organizers on racial justice: Kate Schatz, author most recently of Do the Work with W. Kamau Bell, and Garrett Bucks, founder of the Barnraiser Project and author of The White Pages on Substack.

This 60-minute virtual live event + Q&A is part of The OpEd Project’s series of Expert Talks exploring aspects of voice, identity, and how ideas come to change the world.

Best,
Ashley
