Greetings, Colleagues:

It is not the usual style of The Point, but how about we start with a little good news this week?

Dear FSU Members,

Hundreds of university and community members have participated in the first three UMB Sankofa conversations on structural racism – the beginning of a university-wide process of making UMass Boston a leading anti-racist and health promoting university.  These have been challenging and transformative conversations, including a range of faculty, students, staff, community leaders, and politicians.  They can be viewed here: https://www.umb.edu/sankofa

Greetings, Colleagues:

I hope you managed to have some kind of break and at least were able to limit your screen time over the holiday and immerse in some kind of relaxing and restorative “real” life.
