A Community Conversation: Allyship and the Massachusetts 54th Advancing Our Journey to an Antiracist America

Tuesday, March 30, 2021 | 6 - 7:30pm

Black Lives Matter has ignited public conversation about racial equity and justice. As the nation reckons with injustice, what does it mean to be an ally and/or accomplice?

Join us as we honor the enduring legacy of the Massachusetts 54th and Col. Robert Gould Shaw through an exploration of the roles of allies, accomplices and allyship in building an antiracist society.
