Virtual Speaker: Lee Hawkins

Journalist and author Lee Hawkins will share the examination of his family’s legacy of post-enslavement trauma and resilience in this riveting memoir, I Am Nobody’s Slave. To their suburban Minnesotan neighbors, the Hawkinses were an
ideal American family, embodying success. However, behind closed doors, they faced the legacy of enslavement and apartheid.
