(NAME-MCE) Erin Gruewell versus Tim Wise as a Keynote

[McKevitt, Susan]

Neither. I liked my suggestions; one was a Black male, A. A. Akom, the other a multiracial female, Shakiti Butler, and the final one a white male, Howard Zinn. My preference is for Akom. Read his bio in www.Speakoutnow.org Thoughts?

OKay - so now that Tim Wise is getting so much press and praise over his
recent writings, which are terrific, who would you prefer as a keynote? Tim
Wise, a white male versus Erin Gruewell, a white female?
