After hearing the premiere of Harrold's new work Foreverland, stay for a Q&A with the composer about music and social justice—a conversation never more vital than now. Harrold will be joined by Dr. Ray Briggs of CSULB’s Bob Cole Conservatory of Music.

About this Series
Voices for Justice: Equity & Arts Series is an interdisciplinary exploration of systemic racism, social justice, activism, equality, and the arts. Through CSULB faculty-moderated conversations with leading activists and thinkers, the series provides students and the community with front-line perspectives on how to achieve positive social change. The events in this series are part of a cross-campus initiative to create a more inclusive and compassionate campus culture. The events in the series are free to students and to the community. Voices for Justice is a collaboration of the Division of Student Affairs with the Carpenter Center, as well as with Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Academic Affairs, FEED, and Dr. John Hamilton, Dr. Angela Locks, and Dr. Ray Briggs.
