"Footprints on the Land” explores--through the stories of 52 Americans of varying ages and races—issues of equality and race in cities throughout the United States.

Helfer is a professor, social justice advocate and anti-racism facilitator.  Her library presentation will focus on the controversial topic, white privilege.
