Manatee Society Event - February 27, 2023
Invitations have been sent to Manatee Society members for our first event of 2023. Dr. Bill Woodson, outgoing New College of Florida Chief Diversity Officer, is our featured speaker at Oscura Cafe at 6 PM on February 27, 2023. If you are interested in contributing to join the Manatee Society and attend the February 27 event, please contact Robin Sathan at ManateeDemPrecinct521@gmail.com.
Join us for an enlightening discussion on UNDERSTANDING THIS MOMENT: WHY HISTORICAL CONTEXT IS CRITICAL. Dr. Woodson’s time as dean of outreach, engagement and inclusion and Chief Diversity Officer at New College gives him a unique perspective regarding ongoing efforts to undermine what was his primary responsibility. The controversy surrounding Florida's Department of Education rejecting an Advanced Placement course covering African American Studies continues to attract national attention. As we close out Black History Month, Dr. Woodson will share his thoughts on these issues, and their effect on education in Manatee County. You’ll also have an opportunity to meet our new Manatee County Democratic Party leaders: Chair Evelyn Almodovar, Vice-Chair Glenn Pearson, Secretary Beverly Pannee and Treasurer Tina Shope
