The inaugural African American Wisdom Summit, organized by the Shift Network will take place throughout February in honor of Black History Month. In our times, issues of racial and social justice are very much in the foreground in our society, yet forums for dealing with these concerns wisely and productively are rare.  This Summit will bring together an extremely rich array of African American leaders and their allies to explore ways of addressing historical injustice while also highlighting how we can create a society where everyone thrives.

During this free month long event, you will come to know the unique traditions and spiritual wisdom that African Americans contribute to our world and learn about how you can integrate that wisdom within yourself and your community. Presenters include such visionary leaders as Levar Burton, Cynthia James, Michael Sam, Luisah Teish, Nikki Giovanni and many others.
