[Amy Rohmiller]

Please join us in January for the Social Justice and Black Lives Matter
Task Force's event:

Begin Martin Luther King Day weekend with an unforgettable discussion about
systemic racism awareness and initiatives to dismantle it.  On January 14,
2022, at noon the Society of Ohio Archivists will host the free online
discussion, "Crucial Conversations: Recognizing and Overcoming Racial
Injustice & Bias", featuring Eric Deggans, Dave Snyder, and moderated by
Jerolyn Barbee.

Deggans is NPR's first full-time TV critic, appearing on all the network's
shows, including Morning Edition, Here & Now and All Things Considered,
writing for NPR.org and appearing on podcasts such as Life Kit, Code Switch
and Pop Culture Happy Hour.  He is also author of a book dissecting how
media outlets use prejudice and stereotypes to build ratings and power;
Race-Baiter: How the Media Wields Dangerous Words to Divide a Nation,
published in October 2012 by Palgrave Macmillan.

Snyder is a white evangelical Christian with a calling to develop genuine
multiethnic unity within the local church and within the local community.
Black Lives Matter Cincinnati creates conversations on race with those
least comfortable being in conversations about race, bringing a perspective
that is based on Biblical teaching.  Through Black Lives Matter Cincinnati
social media, he engages white evangelicals, Trump-supporters, white
progressives, and eagerly welcomes Black allies.

Barbee is the Assistant Director, National Afro-American Museum Cultural
Center, Wilberforce, Ohio.
