Dr. Herring and her husband, Dr. Charles Herring, are the founders of Herring Seminars where they work with organizations and school communities to develop ways of understanding complex relations between self and systems with regard to race, class, gender, sexual orientation, physical ability/disability, and other lived cultural experiences.
