We are inviting other campus groups to join us on Tuesday, March 19 at 12:00 PM in Furman 303 for a discussion about potential partnerships and ways to support each other’s work in social justice and educational equity. We’ll provide light snacks, and you are welcome to bring a lunch.
Our second book discussion event will be on Tuesday, May 7 at 11:30 AM – 1:00 PM. We’re reading Michelle Alexander’s The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration in the Age of Colorblindness. Lynda Thomas (lynda.thomas@oregonstate.edu) has copies available to lend in Furman 104.
“The New Jim Crow is essential reading for anyone who cares about justice, humanity, and the future of our democracy.”—California Lawyer, as cited on http://newjimcrow.com.
