OXFORD, Miss. – The William Winter Institute for Racial Reconciliation at the University of Mississippi is mentioned in an article appearing in the May issue of Ebony magazine.
“A Strong Foundation” is the title of the feature, which focuses on Gail Christopher, vice president for program strategy at the W.K. Kellogg Foundation. The Institute is singly mentioned as one of 119 projects in 29 states and Washington, D.C. to have been awarded grants by Kellogg’s America Healing Initiative.
