Let’s Talk Racism Conference
2026 Registration is Live!
Please join us for the 10th Annual Let’s Talk Racism Conference! Our theme this year is Curating Change: The Art of Activism in Education. This event will occur Saturday, March 21st from 9:00am - 4:00pm , in Durham at North Carolina Central University.
The purpose of this event is to give K-12 educators and pre-service teachers an opportunity to engage in sessions centered on building liberatory, culturally-affirming learning spaces that dismantle systemic racism in schools and beyond. While educators are the target audience, we welcome all community members to participate.
The planning collaborative is thrilled to announce Keith Knight as our keynote speaker! Knight is an award-winning cartoonist, musician, and educator whose work has been lauded for its sharp wit, political insight, and ability to blend humor with hard truths. Best known for his comic strips The K Chronicles, (th)ink, and The Knight Life, Knight has spent decades using comics as a lens to examine race, class, identity, and the absurdities of everyday life.
The Let's Talk Racism Conference is co-hosted by an Education Collaborative composed of Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream, and we are (working to extend anti-racist education, Inc).
