March 2021 Virtual Meetup!

Join us for our next virtual monthly meetup! We have organized several terrific lightning talks, and we will provide networking opportunities for attendees. All are welcome, from beginners to experts.

Dr. Dee Jordan from Harvard Medical School will present on her recent project with the American Geographical Society: Celebrating Black Geographers. This project brings awareness to the impacts, contributions, and legacies Black geographers have had on the discipline of geography, their communities, and the world.

We hope you can join us!
