More about Kimberly Y. Erwin....
Ms. Erwin is an educator, writer, intercultural communicator, and entrepreneur. After graduating from Hudson High School (attending her senior year at Columbia-Greene Community College), Kimberly graduated from Spelman College in Atlanta (noted the #1 Historical Black College and University by "U.S. News") where she received a Bachelor of Arts degree in English and French. Upon receiving a Masters in Science degree from the Graduate School of Education at the University of Pennsylvania, specializing in Intercultural Communication, Erwin ventured into the areas of international administration, multicultural leadership, and various teaching positions within the U.S. and globally.
Upon returning to the Hudson Valley, Kimberly started a media company (OneUniversal Media) to give voice to members in communities experiencing gross inequities who yearn to create common means of communicating and celebrating their identity while still challenging societal norms.
Erwin is also a founding member of Africa's Daughters of the Diaspora (ADD), and holds volunteer positions as a Hudson Area Library Trustee, an on-air programmer at WGXC-FM, and with the Hudson City School District.
Erwin is the author of A Children's Book: ENDING RACISM! and hosts a monthly radio talk show called "Race Talks," on WGXC-FM where she provides expertise on the topic of race and ethnicity.
No topic is taboo for Kimberly. At Race Talks, listeners engage with the host, other expert guest educators, activists, organizers, and community members as they disseminate their knowledge (i.e., varying terminologies, historical realities, and current opportunities for engagement) for a better informed, appreciative, and active local citizenry.
