Richland Library announces encore viewing of Dr. Ibram X. Kendi program

August 20, 2020

Due to the community’s overwhelming interest surrounding Let’s Talk Race: A Conversation with Dr. Ibram X. Kendi, Richland Library is excited to offer an encore viewing of the online program from 3 – 4 p.m., Sunday, August 23. Please register at richlandlibrary.com to receive a virtual link to the event, which is free and open to the public.

Originally pre-recorded on Wednesday, August 19, the online program features Dr. Kendi discussing current race relations and how to be an anti-racist in America with University of South Carolina’s Augusta Baker Endowed Chair, Dr. Nicole Cooke. He’s a Guggenheim Fellow, New York Times Bestselling author, historian, and scholar of race and discriminatory policy in America.

To check out copies of Dr. Kendi’s books, including “How to Be an Antiracist,” visit us online.

This online program was made possible, thanks to funding from SC Humanities and the United Way of the Midlands.
