This years’ conference theme, “We the People” inspired the following exciting workshops. The Facilitating Racial Equity Collaborative (FREC) Program Committee curated these to engage thoughtful dialogue and action among those who value scholarship, truth-seeking, democracy, and equity. It is our time to create something new together—all of us.
