A Black Vision of Palestine

January 10, 2016 @ 3:00 pm - 5:00 pm

A talk by Denver activist Anthony Grimes

Grimes describes himself as “a community animator, social entrepreneur, and human rights activist. I engage community building and social justice with a rare combination of lived experience, thoughtful reflection, and innovative leadership.

My Park Hill neighborhood was one of the most turbulent in the nation during the nationally recognized gang war that plagued Denver in the 1990’s. The context of the city—both its social ills and special sense of community—serves as the mimesis for my leadership in a broad range of social sectors; Yet, in every role, I bring a singular vision of redeeming the soul of America.”

Reflecting on his 2014 African Heritage delegation to Palestine/Israel with Interfaith Peace Builders, Grimes created a gallery of photos, a Black Vision of Palestine. He will talk about this experience through the photo collection.
