Activist vs. Organizer: Language of Social Justice Movements
CoLab 2021 project: Please join us to learn more!
Monday, November 1, 2021 · 12 - 1 PM
The language used inside and outside social justice movements speaks volumes about what people believe the movement to be about. Yet often even those within a movement do not always agree on the terms. In this presentation, students Deysi Chitic-Amaya and Kayla Brooks, along with Faculty Advisor Dr. Nancy Kusmaul will discuss the lessons learned while collecting oral histories for From the Civil Rights Movement to Black Lives Matter: Oral Histories of the Lived Experience in Baltimore during their CoLab Summer 2021 research project.
