Elect Her

Women make up half of the population, but less than one in four elected leaders are women. When women run, they win at the same rates as men - the problem is that there aren’t enough women running. Organized by the national organization Running Start and Chellis House, this day of workshop is designed to teach students who identify as women the skills to successfully run for student government and public office.

"To Love an Island: Reading and Conversation with Poet / Organizer Ana Portnoy Brimmer"

Ana Portnoy Brimmer, poet and organizer from Puerto Rico, will be talking about and reading from her debut poetry collection, To Love An Island. This book offers the stark recognition that disaster is political and colonialism the most violent of storms. Beginning with the aftermath of Hurricane María and spanning the summer insurrection of 2019 and subsequent earthquakes in Puerto Rico, To Love An Island is an exploration of collective trauma, an outpour of amassed grief, a desire for unleashed mourning, a fuck-you to resilience, a brandishing of resistance.
