Workshop #4 – The Birth of a Nation: Black Women and Sexual Violence

Tuesday, August 11th @ 2:45-3:45pm

Presentation Abstract: Many people know that Intersectional Feminism and Racial Justice are key when addressing sexual violence but if someone asked you, could you tell them why? This workshop will address the historical roots of sexual violence against African American women and give insight into how our current movement can provide equity for the women who created it.
