Welcome and Panel One: The Great Retreat (Truth and Transformation 2022)
At the 2022 Truth and Transformation conference, during the welcome, we heard from Professor Khalil Gibran Muhammad, head of the Institutional Antiracism and Accountability Project at Harvard Kennedy School, as well as Talia Landry, Mashpee Wampanoag Tribe.
The first panel discussion: Affirmative Action policies were responsible for making the greatest economic gains for historically marginalized groups. This panel will address how legal challenges to the policies in the 1970s and 1980s, have led to current diversity practices. Why did this happen? Who pushed for these changes? And what have been the legacy effects on achieving racial equity in the workplace today?
