This one is for the "Big Girls", and we mean that with love, softness, and truth.
Join us for a critical and heart-centered conversation about race, gender, and fatness in U.S. culture, rooted in Black feminist care and deep community. We’re centering our stories, our bodies, our joy, and the fullness of who we are.
We’ll talk. We’ll collage. Bring your whole self; we have room for the fullness of you here.
All are welcome. Light refreshments will be provided.
Co-hosted by the Black Cultural Center and Counseling Center.
Please contact the Black Cultural Center with any questions or access requests: blacc@uic.edu or (312) 996-9549.
