The end of the semester is approaching, and I hope you are content with what your club was able to accomplish in this virtual world. We faced many challenges with recruitment, promoting and having events, and just keeping our Bergen community engaged in general. The Office of Student Life has faced these challenges right along with you, and I am impressed with the determination and flexibility all of you have displayed these past few months. Being virtual in this capacity has been a new experience for us, and we would love some feedback from all of you. What worked, what didn’t and what can be shared with others.

From Here to Equality: A Virtual Discussion
2021-01-14 19:00 - 20:00 | Virtual Campus
Bergenfield Public Library, Englewood Public Library, Fort Lee Public Library, Hackensack’s Johnson Public Library, and Teaneck Public Library have partnered to host authors and scholars A. Kirsten Mullen and William Darity, Jr. for a virtual discussion of their book From Here to Equality: Reparations for Black Americans in the Twenty-First Century on Thursday, January 14 at 7:00pm.
From Here to Equality examines the economic divide between black and white Americans and makes a comprehensive case for how a reparations program for U.S. descendants of slavery could close that gap. Mullen and Darity assert that today’s black-white wealth gap originated with the unfulfilled promise of 40 acres in 1865, and that the payment of this debt in the 21st century is feasible—and at least 155 years overdue.
