Black vs. Brown

Date: 
Monday, November 9   9:00 PM-11:00 PM

Description: 
The Latino Student Union of Grand Valley presents

BLACK VS. BROWN

At a time when the dynamics of race and ethnicity are changing rapidly in our communities, there is one conversation that America has avoided.
THE RELATIONSHIP between the Latino-American population and the African American population.

What does it mean to be Latino? to be black?
How similar/different is our struggle?
Are you my Ni*g%r?

and a whole lot more..

We will have a panel of 6-8 well-informed and confident student leaders.

Come be part of the debate that is going to resonate at the very core of what it means to not only be a minority in America; but for our two prevalent minority to claim their full and deserved portion of the American Pie.
