The following is a statement from NCPH President, @DDMeringolo, on the recent 2024 Presidential Election results.
ALT Statement from NCPH President regarding the 2024 election results: I am not presuming that we are all having the same response to the 2024 election, but I know it raises many questions. We all need time to process our emotions. When we emerge, I want us to remember that we need public history now more than ever. We must foster critical thinking, facilitate difficult dialogue, and center human dignity. We must believe, support, and empower people whose lived experiences are marginalized and dismissed. We must preserve connection and community. And we will. - Denise Meringolo.
