Film Screening and Community Dialogue with Shakti Butler
Cracking The Codes - The System of Racial Inequity

October 6, 2014, 7pm
Enoch Pratt Free Library, Wheeler Auditorium
400 Cathedral Street, Baltimore

Race—more than any other demographic factor—determines levels of individual educational achievement, health and life expectancy, the possibility of incarceration, and wealth in the United States. And we need to talk about it. This evening will include a screening of Cracking the Codes: The System of Racial Inequity and a community dialogue with filmmaker and racial justice educator Shakti Butler

This event is a part of the Open Society Institute's "Talking About Race" series and is free and open to the public.  It is co-sponsored by the Enoch Pratt Free Library, Annie E. Casey Foundation, Baltimore Racial Justice Action, and YWCA Greater Baltimore
