HUMBOLDT — A spoken word artist, author and anti-racism educator is coming to the Humboldt and District Gallery on the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination. 

Khodi Dill will be at the gallery on Thursday, March 21. In his talk, Overcoming Division: Strengthening Race Relations in a Polarized World, Dill will explore the roots of taboo and polarization regarding race-related conversations in our society.  

He will share with listeners critical intersectional understandings about power, privilege, and disadvantage concerning oppressive systems, and will advocate for unity, community, and a shared vision of the future for all.  

The talk will begin at 7 p.m. and is a free event.  

“Khodi Dill is an award-winning Bahamian-Canadian spoken word artist, author, and anti-racist educator from Saskatoon,” the gallery said in a release. “Centering equity at the heart of his practice, Khodi hopes that his work will engage people of all ages in social justice and the arts.  

Dill is the author of two picture books, Welcome to the Cypher, which introduces young people to the transformative power of rap music, and Little Black Lives Matter, a book of affirmation and Black history for children. Dill also released a nonfiction book, stay up: racism, resistance, and reclaiming Black freedom. 

This event is brought to the community by the Humboldt and District Gallery and Prairie Central District for Sports, Culture and Recreation.
