SUMMARY:Dismantling Oppressive Systems: Building Just Communities
DESCRIPTION:Join the University of Pittsburgh from July 26 – 29 for “Diversity Forum 2021” to learn about racial justice and opportunities to actuate intentional\, meaningful change. \nAbout\nThe 2021 Diversity Forum\, “Dismantling Oppressive Systems: Building Just Communities\,” will engage and equip participants with the knowledge\, skills\, and resources needed to: \n\n\n\nidentify sources of systemic oppression\,\nconsider strategies for dismantling that oppression\, and\nactions critical in fostering more equitable and just communities in which we live\, work\, and learn.\n\n\n\nThe forum will focus on outlining the key concepts underpinning social justice\, illuminating examples of systemic injustice\, and examining means and methods of infusing equitable and just policies and practices across multiple sectors.
