Select Talk draws upon the vast experience and expertise of our Friends Select alumni/ae and parent community in education, business, science, technology, and the arts to discuss and explore topics of a local, national, and global importance.
Join us for a panel discussion about the complicated relationship between citizens, government, and educational institutions.
With food trucks, bounce houses, games, dunk tank, and more. Join in the fun as we bring back this Friends Select favorite as part of Alumni/ae weekend!
Over 500 people filled the Race Street Meetinghouse on April 17 for the only Philadelphia-area stop of the White Fragility in America Tour. Those who were unable to see the event live were able to watch a live stream in the Blauvelt Theatre at Friends Select School. Toni Graves Williamson, Friends Select’s director of equity and inclusion, arranged the event and introduced the evening’s speakers: Robin DiAngelo, the author of White Fragility: Why It’s So Hard for White People to Talk about Racism, and Jack Hill, a diversity consultant, educator, and author.
Friends Select School will bring renowned author Robin DiAngelo to the Race Street Meetinghouse to discuss her New York Times-bestselling book, White Fragility: Why It’s So Hard for People to Talk about Racism. DiAngelo will be joined by Jack Hill, a diversity consultant, educator, and author, for an in-depth discussion about white fragility and racial inequality.
