CONTEMPORARY DEBATES ABOUT CIVIL RIGHTS IN THE ERA OF DEI

Join us to hear from experts, including Center for the American Way of Life Washington Fellow Dr. Jesse Merriam, who will discuss the history, current state, and future of civil rights.

These experts will address whether we have moved away from what many perceive to be the primary goal of the civil rights movement – guaranteeing nondiscrimination – to goals of “diversity, equity, and inclusion.”
