Unity Day 5 - The Grand Finale

We've reached the last day of Unity Week! OMA's Assistant Director, Janée Kelly-Eddie will set us up for an evening of programming that will ignite our community to come together and continue the fight for justice. We will start with a showcase featuring CWRU alumni that were connected to OMA during their time here. They will talk about their lives after CWRU, what OMA means to them, and some may even share a poem or song to inspire us all. We will then move into our keynote speech by the renowned Melissa Harris Perry as introduced by OMA's Graduate Intern, Ibukun Ode-Martins. Melissa will lead a conversation about how community is more important than ever in times like this. As she takes us through a journey of the past year, we will learn how important it is to stay connected to one another and to collectively stand tall in the face of adversity. Melissa is one dynamic speaker that you don't want to miss! After we hear from Melissa, Unity Week will come to a close with CWRU's Vice President for Student Affairs, Lou Stark. Lou will reflect on what we have seen, learned, and experienced this week as well as how we can move forward and one united community.
