STRENGTH IN SOLIDARITY : APA Division 45 [Dr. Kevin Cokley's Presidential Task Force]
The Strength and Solidarity Podcast is a conversational piece that invites scholars, community activists, leaders, artists, and entrepreneurs to discuss their work as accomplices in cultivating cross-racial/ethnic solidarity. The podcasts vision is that we exist because we believe that white supremacy is a public health crisis. Therefore, it is our collective responsibility through critical action and reflection to collaborate to construct a liberated future as accomplices of each other by engaging, educating, evaluating, empowering, and elevating the voices of all communities of color.

Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes.
