Bronx Community College (BCC) will host the 10th annual Amadou Diallo Youth Arts and Sci-Tech Day on Saturday, Feb. 4, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., in Colston Hall. The event is open to the public. (Proof of COVID-19 vaccination is required to enter the BCC campus.)
“Once again, the global community looked on in horror as the senseless police beating and death of Tyre Nichols in Memphis continued to unfold. Systemic racism and oppression continue to eat away at the moral and ethical conscience of American society. Everyone must continue to resist,” said BCC Professor Gene Adams, BCC’s director of collaborative education and co-director of the science and technology entry program, who organized the event.
The Amadou Diallo Youth Arts and Sci-Tech Day will honor the memory of Tyre Nichols by engaging our youth in the spirit of Amadou Diallo. The BCC campus is at 2155 University Ave., The Bronx, NY 10453.
