Standing Up for Social Justice on Campus in Times of Fear and Hatred

Today, we are bombarded with news about hate crimes or violent acts that are directed towards those that we have been taught to fear. When such incidents happen on campus, each of us is called upon to stand up but many of us do not know what to say or do in response. Throughout this workshop, we will explore how to foster a culturally competent and sensitive academic community that is able to embrace and respond to diversity. This session should benefit those that wish to be more effective allies during these troubled times.
