Description

November 10, 2020 from 5:00 PM – 6:30 PM

This event will be a forum for brainstorming how we respond as individuals, a school, and a community, given the outcome of the election at the local, state, and national levels. This event is designed as an interactive panel discussion. We will be joined by the Leaders of a Beautiful Struggle, Job Opportunities Task Force and Baltimore Public Justice Center. 

 

Instructor

Dayvon Love Related Seminars and Products


Dayvon Love is the Director of Public Policy for Leaders of a Beautiful Struggle. For over a decade now, he has sharpened his oratory and political analysis skills. As a Forest Park High school student, he discovered the world of policy debate after slipping into a practice session for the Baltimore Urban Debate League team to keep warm before school began one day.

Dayvon was so skilled at policy debate as a high school student; it earned him a scholarship to Towson University. He then gained national attention when he and fellow debater, Deven Cooper, won the Cross Examination Debate Association (CEDA) National Championship – the first time in history that an all-Black debate team won the tournament. Incorporating hip-hop, poetry and personal experiences, their debate arguments flipped the script as they underscored how the practice of the debate community purveys the kind of racial inequalities existent in society today.

Caryn majored in International Studies at Washington College, and has worked within state and local politics for over 10 years. As the first African American female to lead JOTF, Caryn continues to work tirelessly to encourage key policymakers and stakeholders to adopt and support policies and programs that eliminate educational and employment barriers and facilitate the successful entry, or re-entry, of low-wage workers. As such, Caryn has been instrumental in leading numerous state and local policy reform efforts including, but not limited to, ‘Ban the Box’ on job and college applications, expansion of criminal record expungement and shielding laws, postsecondary access and affordability, and reducing the impact of incarceration on working families through development, passage, and implementation of the Maryland Justice Reinvestment Act and statewide bail reform.
