We had a great time connecting with familiar faces at the Council on Foreign Relations’ 2024 Conference on Diversity in International Affairs — Brandy D., Mai Anna Pressley, Mark Akpaninyie, and Britt Robinson, MA. 🎊 Thank you CFR for including NABEA and recognizing diverse expertise in international relations.A memorable moment from the event was a question posed by an attendee, “As the only Black China specialist in my organization, how should I handle being consistently viewed as the ‘Black expert’ and expected to represent all Black perspectives?” This sparked a powerful discussion, and naturally, our NABEA members rallied around her in support. ✊🏾 Let’s continue to stand together and uplift each other in these vital conversations! #NABEA #Community #BIPOC #InternationalAffairs
