Delaware County Community College's Center for Equity and Social Justice (CESJ) aims to help break down systems of racism and social injustice in our community. We do this by offering continuous opportunities for meaningful discussions that raise awareness, encourage education and understanding, and drive transformative change, through equity, and social justice initiatives.

Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s Life and Legacy Celebration
with Dr. Chanelle N. Rose, Author of "The Struggle for Black Freedom in Miami: Civil Rights and America's Tourist Paradise, 1896-1968"
Thursday, January 23 | 6-8 p.m. | Livestream
In honor of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Dr. Rose will reflect on the courage and resilience of ordinary men and women, particularly in South Florida’s Black Freedom Struggle. Sharing insights into the legacy of the Civil Rights and Black Power movements, as well as the ongoing fight against racial injustice, Dr. Rose will speak on how Dr. King's legacy was the product of many efforts in various locations throughout the South. Since Florida has become ground zero in the cultural wars over teaching about race and U.S. history, Rose will also discuss the historical context of contemporary battles over banned books and the anti-Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) movement.
