Center for Women's & Gender Studies Spring Symposium

About the Symposium
What is the future of feminism? What are the lessons from feminism(s) past and present? This symposium brings diverse feminist voices into critical dialogue to think through, critique and push the discourses of race, gender, sexuality, allyship, transnationalism, legacy and futurity from multiple positionalities. Our goal is to highlight the critically important work being done by diverse feminist thinkers, and explore how intersectional feminist analysis and praxis can lead to fundamental transformations.
