Join us on March 23, 2023 for a powerful conversation with Ron Walker, Timothy Jones, and Kamau Ptah. Moderated by Deidre Farmbry.
Learn about COSEBOC’s long standing tradition of engaging and empowering boys and young men of color through “Rites of Passage” programs, culminating with two innovative courses: D.R.U.M. (Discovering Rituals, Understanding Manhood) and Footprints.
The architects and instructors of these two courses will describe how the programs prepare teams of adults to become trained facilitators in their own communities. The panelists will share their personal and professional experiences using hip hop pedagogy, ritual, and memory to help boys and young men of color find their voice and affirm their social, emotional, and cultural identity.
