Debate, Debrief, and Dessert: The Role of Diversity in Higher Education and American Life ft. Dr. Kevin Roberts and Prof. Cornell William Brooks
Description
Debate, Debrief, and Dessert is an HKS series that explores competing perspectives on pressing policy issues and seeks to strengthen the Harvard community’s capacity to engage in respectful, substantive dialogue across differences. Join us for the second session on Tuesday, September 22.
