March PCWA Luncheon
Thursday, March 11, 2021 at Noon
Join PCWA for our March virtual networking luncheon, featuring a timely discussion about The CROWN Act and Race Discrimination Based on Natural Hair.
The luncheon presentation will explore the issue of race discrimination based on hairstyles associated with African American culture and natural hair types and will review federal precedent addressing workplace discrimination as well as examples of discrimination in other contexts such as schools. It will also introduce you to the proposed legislation known as the CROWN Act, which stands for Creating a Respectful and Open World for Natural Hair. The CROWN Act was recently enacted to prohibit race-based hair discrimination in 7 states and has been considered in an additional 30 states.
Julia Steggerda-Corey is the Director of the Compliance and Risk Management Program at Drake Law School. Victoria Millet is an Equal Opportunity and Affirmative Action Associate and Deputy Title IX Officer at the University of Minnesota. Both Julia and Torii attended Drake Law.
