C21 Collaboratory Event with Community Scholars

Local-Digital-Public Roundtables

Tuesday, April 3, 1:00 pm – 3:00 pm, Curtin 939

Project Local-Digital-Public examines how public discourse can remobilize civic action and rejuvenate academic thought. LDP is a social justice project that seeks to hear residents of Sherman Park and Washington Park speak back, speak out, and be heard. Come hear two community scholars, Camille Mays, Sherman Park Community Association, and Christie Melby-Gibbons, Tricklebee Café, talk about the work they do in their communities. This event is free and open to the public.
