The George Washington University GSPM Summer Series features speakers on a diverse range of policy topics and is part of the school's DC Residency week programming.

About this event


A representative government should reflect the diversity of the communities it serves but for too long, politics has been a profession where communities of color are underrepresented. Join us as we reflect on how social movements such as Black Lives Matter have forced institutions to reflect on who gets a seat at the table and what diversity, inclusion, and belonging means to traditionally marginalized Black professionals.
