Dr. Cornel West: A Conversation on Justice & Human Services

11/21/2022

 
DSHS recently provided employees with an outstanding opportunity to hear from famed American philosopher Dr. Cornel West! His talk was entitled “Justice is what love looks like in public” and he further discusses how we must serve others, particularly those who have been oppressed and isolated in cycles of poverty. The Princeton professor, prolific author, and champion for racial justice, spoke for about an hour to the delight of hundreds of employees through Zoom.
The video below is the recording of the talk so that you too can experience Dr. West’s discourse and wisdom.
