A Dialogue on Race and Ethnicity (ADORE)

December 8, 2023 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm

A Dialogue on Race and Ethnicity (ADORE) resumes December 8 HERE, 7pm, Friday,

ADORE discusses representation. News person Megyn Kelly insisted that not only Santa, but Jesus, too, are white men, during a 2013 debate, in response to an article in Slate Magazine by News person Aisha Harris questioning should Santa be depicted as a white man.  These articles elaborate on the topic:https://slate.com/human-interest/2013/12/santa-claus-an-old-white-man-not-anymore-meet-santa-the-penguin-a-new-christmas-symbol.html
