Women’s Herstory Month to be Inclusive and Intersectional

NC State celebrates Women’s Herstory Month throughout the month of March with the theme of “Unapologetically Women: Forging and Healing Our Collective Memories.” The theme emphasizes the right of women to be themselves without apology and acknowledges the many different paths and perspectives that comprise women’s perspectives and lived experiences.

This year’s program lineup will continue the efforts of the Campus Community Centers to provide inclusive and intersectional programming for each of its heritage and awareness months, offering events inclusive of women of color, trans women, men and others. All are invited to participate, learn and contribute.

The Mixtape Series: For Black Students Navigating White Spaces

The African American Cultural Center will host a trilogy of events in March called “The Mixtape Series: For Black Students Navigating White Spaces.” The series aims to allow students, both at the undergraduate and graduate level, to network and connect through honest dialogue.

Decolonizing Feminism through Native Feminist Theory

The GLBT Center, in collaboration with the Women’s Center, will host Chris Finley, associate professor of American studies and ethnicity at the University of Southern California on Thursday, March 15, 2018 for a guest lecture and a workshop.
