During one of the most consequential elections in American history, attacks on the democratic process are rapidly escalating. There are crackdowns on voting rights, mis- and disinformation eroding trust and the threat of a contested election this November. It is a critical moment for America and the future of the country. Join Emory University’s Fox Center for Humanistic Inquiry and The Guardian for a look at the history, what is at risk right now and what we can all do to engage in the democratic process and work to make real the promise of a representative democracy. Speakers include Alan Abramowitz, Carol Anderson, George Chidi, Bernard Fraga, Kira Lerner, and Sam Levine. Special guest to be announced.
Atlanta Black Men’s Wellness Day: November 2nd, 7AM, Morehouse College
FREE Health Screenings, Vendors, Live Entertainment, and FREE Family Friendly FUN!
Since 2004, The African American Male Wellness Agency (The AA Wellness Agency) has produced a 5K Walk & Run in over 15 cities as an awareness campaign to spotlight the fact that Black Men die on average 12 years earlier than their white counterparts. For 20 years, the AA Wellness Agency has worked to save Black men’s lives, close the health gap and help Black men to live longer from preventable diseases.
The heartbeat of each event is our health screenings where we screen for blood pressure, glucose, cholesterol, HIV, STD/STI and prostate cancer for men who may not be seeing the doctor regularly. We help men understand that through prevention they can live longer.
