“It’s a community thang!” with Theron Brown

“It’s a community thang!” with Theron Brown

Presented by The University of Akron at Student Union, Jean Hower Taber Gardner Theatre

Most of the time inspiration is acquired from outside sources. During this discussion, we’ll examine how to empower yourself through your talents and community resources, while influencing and inspiring others.

Professor Theron Brown will perform piano, discuss his background in music, and how he uses his talents to help community.

This event is part of The University of Akron’s Rethinking Race event series, a two-week forum of events focused on facilitating “courageous conversations designed to promote inclusive excellence” regarding race and race-related issues. Thank you to our Rethinking Race sponsors the County of Summit ADM Board, Mercury Plastics, Goodyear, FirstEnergy Foundation, FedEx Custom Critical, Alpha Phi Alpha Foundation of Akron, Ilene Shapiro’s Summit County Department of Job and Family Services, the Akron Community Foundation, the City of Akron, Philip and Paulette Thompson, and Dr. Sheldon Wrice.
