Pittsburgh's 18th Annual Summit Against Racism is scheduled for Saturday, January 23, 2016, and our inspiration is Frederick Douglass's famous declaration “Power concedes nothing without a demand."
The planning committees is now accepting proposals. We seek your vision, expertise and imagination. Please consider hosting a presentation, panel, dialogue, or workshop. Youth-led initiatives are especially encouraged to participate!
The deadline for proposals is December 1st.
All revenue, including ads placed in the Summit Program Book, is used to fund the Jonny Gammage Scholarship, which supports law students of color. This year, we are excited to announce a new initiative in addition to our traditional scholarship. The Black & White Reunion will award a local organization working for racial and social justice with a grant of $2,000. With this support, the organization will be enabled to employ a "Jonny Gammage Fellow" who will have the opportunity to develop leadership skills and receive hands-on experience working for social change in Pittsburgh.
Get more information, submit proposals, register for the Summit, and purchase ads for the program book online at our website www.summitagainstracism.org.
