- A keynote address by Gail E. Wyatt, Ph.D., author of Stolen Women: Reclaiming Our Sexuality,Taking Back Our Lives; and Associate Director of the UCLA AIDS Institute
- A series of panel discussions that address various facets of the Black community, including 'historical" African Americans, as well as the Afro-Caribbean, Latin@, and African Immigrant and Refugee communities

- An appearance by members of the Sounds of Blackness
And much more!!
