Busses are leaving from HAB at 9am and at 11:30am and probably won't be coming back until 6pm. You are more than welcome to drive and come back earlier than that. Please wear all black. They will be handing out excused slips for those missing class to attend the event. Join SUNY New Paltz BSU in solidarity of the black community. The purpose of the day is to show the importance black people have in society. There will be several workshops and speakers tackling issues such as racism, stereotyping, and blacks in the media. The hope is that PoC gain a sense of community and confidence; and for those who are not of color the hope is to gain knowledge on the struggles of this community in order to help pass it on and promote awareness Here is a review of the event last year http://oracle.newpaltz.edu/a-prideful-turnout-of-unity/ Please be ready to reflect on the event at the following Chapter
