About Us

The White Privilege Symposium is a project of The Privilege Institute, a 501(c)(3) best known for its annual conference, the White Privilege Conference (WPC). Now in its 21st year, and selling out weeks in advance, the The Privilege Institute is responding to growing demand by creating regional conferences across the U.S. and Canada. Philadelphia, San Francisco, and New York City have already hosted successful regional symposiums. This Fall, Lesley University hosts the White Privilege Symposium bringing it back to its original New England host location.
