In celebration of Black History Month, Elms College will hold its fifth annual Black Experience Summit on Thursday, Feb. 17 from 12:30 to 4:30 p.m. The event is hosted by the Elms College President’s Office and Office of Diversity and Inclusion. Due to COVID-19 protocols, this event will be held virtually via Zoom. “The theme to this year’s Black Experience Summit is ‘Stories of Our Becoming: the Shoulders on Which We Stand,’” said Jennifer Shoaff, director of the Office of Diversity and Inclusion. “Throughout the summit, we will explore the histories and stories that inform today’s black experience and the inextricable link of those histories and stories to black-liberation and social-justice movements.”
