What Happens in September?
A Discussion on COVID-19 & Social Justice in Higher Education (Recording Below)
On June 4, 2020, we convened two panels of higher education leaders, COVID-19 researchers, scholars, and community organizers to share their perspectives on the question: “What happens in September?”
We asked audience members to submit their most pressing questions for the panelists in advance and allowed them to vote in real time on which questions the panelists would answer live. In response to and in honor of George Floyd and all victims of racial injustice, the second panel featured scholars and community organizers who have long been studying race, poverty, and injustice in the United States.
We invite you to watch these discussions below, and to join us at the Virtual Education Summit this July, where we will continue these conversations.
For your convenience, we have timestamped the video based on the questions and topics addressed. Please feel free to skip around based on what you want to hear:

Panel 2: A discussion on race, poverty, and social justice in higher education (1:17:47)
