Join Markus Hunt Essien at the 7th Annual INTERRUPT RACISM™ Summit on November 2 for his strategic session: “Four Frames, One Fight: Interrupting Racism from the Inside Out.”

Explore how inequity is embedded in policies, people practices, power dynamics, and organizational culture, grounded in real institutional patterns.
