Animal Welfare Professionals

CARE will be hosting our 2nd annual CARE Caucus during Black History Month. 
4 Discussions, Free, All Black Speakers, all in an effort to CHANGE THE 2%

African Americans only represent 2% of the Veterinary field. CARE is helping to raise that number. Last year we realized that not only is there a dramatically low number of Black Veterinary students, there is also a large number that are at risk of dropping out due to costs and financial hardships.

Since last year was so eventful we are hosting the Black History Month Series again! This year, completely different topics and speakers. All in an effort to CHANGE THE 2%!

The Power of Sankofa
Wednesday, February 23, 7:00 pm Eastern

The "Sankofa" is a metaphorical symbol used by the Akan people of Ghana, generally depicted as a bird with its head turned backward taking an egg from its back. It teaches us we must reach back to value past knowledge in order to move forward.

Join James Evans and colleagues talk about things we could have learned from previous Civil rights movements and leaders to truly make progress.
