Vantage Point Hosts Online Series of Film and Discussion Evenings

The Vantage Point Arts & Culture Collective is presenting a series of free online programs celebrating Residences at Vantage Point’s 30th anniversary. The series, “Community Rising,” features videos followed by conversations between community leaders on issues of importance and current attention. Viewers may participate in the moderated discussions via Chat.

The final program, on Sept. 30, includes a TED talk video, featuring Princeton student Priya Vulchi and Harvard student Winona Guo, co-authors of the textbook, “Tell Me Who You Are.” It will be followed by a conversation, “What It Takes to be Racially Literate,” between Sabina Taj, Howard County Board of Education member and Adjunct Faculty at Howard Community College, and Hammond High School junior Uma Ribeiro.
