Here is a brief outlook on some of the events we will be hosting/co-hosting this year:
Wednesday, February 8, 2012 - Black Jew Dialogues - Pogue Student Center - Multipurpose Room A - 8:00pm. In The Black-Jew Dialogues, Larry Jay Tish and Ron Jones take the audience on a hysterical and poignant ride through three days they spent together in a cheap hotel room discussing their own experiences, the history of their people, and why there has been a growing rift between the two groups since the early 70's. Through their dialogue the audience gains insight to the true nature of prejudice and how our inability to face our own biases separate us in ways that we may not even think about. The comic journey begins in the Egypt of the Pharaohs and travels through Africa, colonial times, to present-day America.
