Spelman Speaks Series

Join Our Dialogue

Spelman College has a strong tradition of working as an active agent in movements for social justice and equality. This series seeks to highlight the ongoing work of HBCUs with meaningful and impactful intersectional analyses and conversations steeped in social justice.

During these 60-minute town hall style discussions faculty, students and well known alumnae will be in dialogue with local leaders and community members about the ways in which the collective can work together to continue the fight for civil rights.

The series was developed in response to social unrest following the death of George Floyd and other victims of police brutality and will address discussion topics pulled from a joint letter developed by faculty and staff in support of the Black Lives Matter Movement.
