Coffee in Common — Media Literacy: Racism, Politics and the News

Share

Coffee in Common is a monthly series co-hosted by the St. Petersburg Alumnae Chapter of the Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. and the League of Women Voters of the St. Petersburg Area. This month’s topic is Media Literacy: Racism, Politics and the News

These public events are for thoughtful, open-minded white women and women of color who wish to discuss the prescient issues of the day including: white privilege, racism, and white supremacy. This series seeks to explore the intersection of politics and race by educating audiences about history and lived experience and to facilitate important, and often uncomfortable, discussion about race.

Coffee will be provided to participants as they learn about the monthly topic. Following the presentation, facilitators will guide discussion on the topic and its relevance in today’s world and lead honest conversations about the deeply rooted effects of institutional and systemic racism in our community.

It is through open-minded, free, and safe discussions among women and the community that we can forge forward together in the struggle with knowledge and power.
