Led by a Panel of U.S. Gilman Scholar Recipients
One of the most unique aspects about the U.S. is that it comprises several different nationalities, ethnic groups and races. Race relations in the U.S. have had a long, complicated history, and there was hope that the election of the first African-American president in U.S. history signaled the improvement of relations. However, several polls have shown that only 36% of voters believed race relations had improved - a drastic decline from just a year prior, when 62% believed they had improved. Why?
Join us on Friday, October 7th, at 6p.m. to speak with a panel of U.S. Department of State-sponsored Gilman Scholarship recipients, who are in Moscow studying this year, to learn their perspectives on race/ethnicity challenges in the U.S.
