SUMMARY:The 4th Annual Winning the Race Conference
DESCRIPTION:The Winning the Race Conference was developed with three overarching goals: engage in conversations with campus and community constituencies that will build an appreciation for diversity differences and a spirit of community through shared ideas; promote a broad discourse on race relations by building conversations to bring together diverse communities in the Delta through sharing of ideas and building cooperation; and to rekindle a hope that Delta communities will move toward greater equality and forward and open thinking while reducing racial disparities and tensions. \nDelta State University’s award-winning race relations conference\, Winning the Race\, will feature two highlight speakers at this year’s event which will be hosted on campus March 28-29. Keynote speakers for the 2017 conference will be announced soon. \n  \nThis year’s conference is titled “Winning the Race: Advancing Education in the Mississippi Delta.” The inaugural program spearheaded by Delta State President William N. LaForge in 2014\, was designed as an innovative academic conference. The 2017 schedule promises to build on the meaningful dialogue presented at previous conferences. \nDelta State University \nNo Cost \nSponsored by Delta State University & Mississippi Humanities Council \nFor more information:\nDr. Temika Simmons\, (662) 846-4365

SUMMARY:Speakers Bureau: Parallels of Southern Storytelling & Folktales from Around the World
DESCRIPTION:Diane Williams is a neo-griot\, along the lines of the story­tellers from times gone by when oral historians were crucial to maintaining black folks’ history because book publishers didn’t believe the history worth chronicling. Williams is also a quilter\, an artistry befitting for a woman known for paying homage to the past. Williams uses silk yarns\, beads\, stones and vibrant colors to make traditional quilts with Motherland inspiration to tell stories of strength\, resilience and hope.
