Earlier in July, Villa hosted Dr. Andre Perry on campus. Dr. Perry, a nationally known and respected commentator on race, led a powerful discussion regarding his book, “Black Power Scorecard: Measuring the Racial Gap and What We Can Do to Close It.”
Facilitated by some dynamic panelists from our community, this event serves as an example of the College living its mission and creating a progressive and equitable path towards a better Buffalo. The conversation was moderated by Will Green. Panelists included Stephanie Peete, Franchelle Parker, Dr. Henry Louis Taylor, Jr., Dr. Craig Rogers, and Brenda Williams Duffie.
“As a college for the community, events like these help us to live our mission while educating our community members for a progressive and equitable path forward,” said Esther Annan, the President’s Special Assistant for Philanthropy, who helped to plan the evening.
