NationSwell and Marguerite Casey Foundation are proud to present the third event in our book club series: “#SayHerName: Black Women’s Stories of Police Violence and Public Silence,” featuring Professor Kimberlé Crenshaw — professor of law at UCLA and Columbia Law School and co-founder and executive director of the African American Policy Forum (AAPF) and Ms. Rhanda Dormeus, a member of the #SayHerName Mothers Network.
 
Join us on Friday, May 10th in New York City for a conversation between Professor Crenshaw, Dr. Carmen Rojas, President & CEO of Marguerite Casey Foundation, and Ms. Rhanda Dormeus — whose daughter, Korryn Gaines, was killed by police in 2016. Together, we’ll learn  how we can incorporate an intersectional approach in our own work for justice — and how we can best lend our own voices in service of naming and ameliorating the violence that harms Black women and girls.
