In honor of the 8th Annual National Day of Racial Healing, Elms College's Cynthia A. Lyons Center for Equity in Urban Education (CEUE) is hosting an event entitled, #GOODScholars: Creating Educational Spaces of Hope for Racial Healing. Dr. Tyra Good, Inaugural Executive Director of the CEUE, and Timothy Jones, CEUE Visiting Scholar, will lead a critical discussion focused on examining racism and structured inequities within school systems and an educator's role in creating equity-centered trauma-informed educational spaces. This event will serve as the launch of the CEUE's "GOOD Educators Connect" Book discussion of, Becoming Culturally Responsive Educators: 5 Necessary Action Steps by Dr. Jahkari H. Taylor.

The event will be held on Saturday, January 13th from 10:30 am-12 noon in the Mary Dooley College Center, Room 101.
