Presented by Dr. Deborah Pembleton, 3/15/2022
In this Beckman Humor Project event, Dr. Pembleton examines how a humble Black nun from Canton, Mississippi infused Catholicism with gospel music, influenced global leadership and cultural competence and carried out the business of life with love, strength, and energized laughter.
