Pizza and a Movie Series
Join us for pizza and a movie. We will be reflecting and discussing various topics found in the movies we present. These topics have included, but are not limited to: race, racism, white privilege, Native American culture, the history of sports, gender — just to name a few. Since we can't share a pizza together, participants will receive an electronic gift card to Dominos, halfway through the movie. We hope you can join us!
