The conference closed with a rousing keynote by Dr. Patricia Fernandez- Kelly, a Princeton professor and Chair of LALDEF. Thank you to all of those who came to the conference! Special thanks to our esteemed speakers for their awesome presentations and thought-provoking discussions! La Convivencia knows that we can make a change when we come together.
