We are in a moment where reactions to the fight for equitable and just workplaces range from persistent enthusiasm to a shift in priorities, to outright resistance and even legal restrictions. This panel will offer some historical context about previous cycles of pushback in the U.S. and will feature thought leaders from university and corporate sectors who have managed to keep DEIA work central to their organizations despite a changing social and political climate and will focus on how arts organizations can do so as well. Moderated by Marshall Jones, III, Associate Dean of Equity at Mason Gross School of the Arts; Featuring Sharon Stroye, Emory University, Dr. Antonio Culer, University of Michigan, Darrelle Johnson, The Broadway League, and more guests to be announced.
