In an effort to affirm accurate portrayals of Black people in the mainstream media, the Campaign for Black Male Achievement , in partnership with the Perception Institute , will host a special gathering titled "Black Male Re-Imagined III".
Part of a groundbreaking event series launched in 2010, "Black Male Re-Imagined III" will feature timely discussions that explore how Black men and women are portrayed in the mainstream, with a particular focus on issues such as: dissecting media coverage of police violence against Black people; the intersection and inclusion of issues facing Black men, women, gay and trans people; the disparities in attention and action focused on Black women victims of systemic and domestic violence; exploring Black Masculinity (with a panel sponsored by Mic.com); the relationships between Black fathers and daughters; the power of the arts in driving social change and activism, and more.
