Race, Place & Diversity 2017 Symposium: Our Past, One Future

Presented by Kansas City Friends of Alvin Ailey at American Jazz Museum

Kansas City Friends of Alvin Ailey is committed to a five-year symposium project that focuses attention on fostering awareness of issues of diversity at the local, regional, national, and international level. The Symposium provides a platform for a candid discussion on race, place, and diversity, and how each influences the current condition and future of Kansas City.
