Wednesday, October 7th at 7:30pm. Courtright Memorial Library 2nd floor atrium. 138 West Main Street, Westerville, Ohio 43081.

By arguing that Black fathers are not just found in individual families, but are indeed the treasure of entire Black communities, Will makes the case for a bold idea: that Black men can counter racist ideas and policies by virtue of their presence in the lives of Black boys and young men.
