Womxn of Color (WOC)

A DAPL talk/teach-in given by Bill McKibben, as a part of an ongoing event series hosted by Women of Color in solidarity with Standing Rock. Please bring money to donate!

brASS: Brown RadicalAss Burlesque is a multi-disciplinary performance troupe from NYC that uses our unique perspectives as women of color as a lens to the myriad of issues we are faced with in society. Through celebrations of our politicized bodies, we are making politics sexy and empowering audiences to value their own stories and use their creativity towards collective action. We encourage a disruption of passive consumption of art and wish to focus our performance as an instrument to re-imagine our society.

Kimberlé Crenshaw, Professor of Law at UCLA and Columbia Law School, is a leading authority in the area of Civil Rights, Black feminist legal theory, racism and the law. Her groundbreaking work on “Intersectionality” has traveled globally and was influential in the drafting of the equality clause in the South African Constitution.

Come to WOC’s meeting this week (catered by Taste of India!) to relax and unwind; we’ll be providing essential oils, coloring books, and tea as well! We also want to have a conversation about current events on campus, and share our collective knowledge.
