Category Access to And Still We Rise: A Celebration of our collective Resiliency and Affirmation that we are more than our struggles and trauma category videos.
At KCTI’s 10th Annual Fall Conference we will once again convene as a community to address the needs of the Black, Indigenous, People of Color (BIPOC) community. While we continue to acknowledge institutional racism and its attempts to oppress BIPOC communities, we want to shift the focus on how we have risen through time. It is our intention to provoke conversation that will impact our awareness, propel us toward sustainable equity for communities of color and into action beyond complicity. This year we are intentionally focusing on BIPOC’s Courage, Resilience, and Genius.
As a society we continue to be at a racial and cultural crossroads. At local and national levels we have journeyed through racial unrest, the covid pandemic, and countless political polarization in the past year. Leading BIPOC communities to feel drained and tired. Even still the work continues and the influence is felt. Our resilience highlights the strength, courage, and wisdom that have been passed down in BIPOC communities. Our brilliance, audacity, and endurance are the very things we need to celebrate as we gain our second wind. This 10th annual conference will be held as a form of Celebration and an opportunity to create healing and empowerment in our community. We have invited Andrea Jenkins, Professor Kaba Hiawatha Kamene, Dr. Bravada Garrett- Akinsanya, and Jerry Tello and others to lead us in conversation.
