I gave a presentation on Celebrating Diversity at Penn State University for students and faculty. It was the first of two for an organization called The Commission On Racial/Ethnic Diversity, CORED. Their mission is to actively support University wide diversity initiatives that foster teamwork, collaboration, and communication among racial and ethnic constituencies in order to ensure inclusion, equal opportunity and success for underrepresented communities. This fits perfectly into my mission as I have continously tried to educate both students and educators on racial barriers that prevent oppressed students from believing they can attend college. I was honored to be there and I hope that my message will be long lasting.
