- Description:

Ron Williams, graduate teaching assistant in the Yale Gordon College of Arts and Sciences, knows what it is like to be mislabeled and mistreated in a ‘normal’ society. As a black youth struggling to find his own identity, he battled to have his voice heard and eventually became an award-winning performance artist and social-justice activist. Join him as he shares his experiences and facilitates an open dialogue about what it means to be a human being, why ‘the box’ is an illusion, how art is used for social change, and how you can tap into your inner activist.
Light refreshments will be served. Free and open to the public.
