Description

Privilege. Identity. Social Justice. The journey begins with you. Through interactive activities and focused discussions, participants will learn how their identities influence all they do and how to use this knowledge to become agents of change on campus and in our world. "Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere!"

All students will receive an EventBrite ticket to their Johns Hopkins email address, which will be used to confirm attendance.

His award-winning programs and presentations have been seen by thousands of students, faculty, and staff on campuses across the country.
