Join the UIC Centers for Cultural Understanding and Social Change (CCUSC) for a series of Meet and Greets! Every few weeks, two of our centers pair up and host a relaxed conversation about a topic that's important to our communities.
Coming up next:
Have you witnessed individuals and institutions verbally express solidarity and support while not taking action? Join the Women's Leadership and Resource Center and the Latino Cultural Center for an important conversation on performative allyship and its distinction from solidarity.
Some central questions to explore:
- What does performative allyship look like at the individual and the institutional level?
- How do we collectively define true solidarity?
- How can we commit ourselves to solidarity in the service of equity and justice?
CART live captioning will be provided. Please contact Dr. Ada Cheng (adacheng@uic.edu) for questions or additional accommodations.
