To help campus leaders better understand the specific issues facing BIPOC women academics, the Institute for Ethnic Studies will host a series of four discussions of Dr. Lorgia García Peña's Community as Rebellion: A Syllabus for Surviving Academia as a Woman of Color (Haymarket, 2022).
BIPOC women graduate students planning a career in academia are very welcome to attend, and the Institute would be happy to provide a copy of the book if you're interested. For further details, see the letter from Joy Castro, Institute Director.
The reading group discussion will take place in the Ubuntu Room at the Jackie Gaughan Multicultural Center from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. on the dates listed below.
