  5. Building Power Building Power

    October 25, 2019 - 2:30pm to 8:00pm

    This event was created by social work graduate students three years ago as a way to combat virulent white supremacists on campus and provide space for processing, healing, and building action and power against oppression. This year, the conference aims to center community knowledge in the fight against white supremacy. This will be developed through challenging ourselves to explore our own internalized white supremacy so that we can project love and wield power in our communities, institutions, and society at large. We are pleased to announce that this year our keynote lecture will be led by community and cultural worker, emergent strategy activist, doula, and author of Pleasure Activism: Adrienne Maree Brown.
