TOMODACHI Critical Conversation Series

The TOMODACHI Critical Conversations Series initially began as a response to the BLM movement to create a safe space for conversations around awareness, identity, discrimination, and solidarity. This year will build on the idea of this safe space for critical conversations around issues that will respond to current global challenges such as COVID pandemic, environmental issues, social justice, and other challenges that may spring up.
