Join us for this compelling workshop with leader\, educator\, and speaker Amber Starks on Realizing Black and Native Futurity Through Solidarity and Kinship.
\nThis workshop examines t he intersection of Black Liberation and Indigenous Sovereignty as logics a nd movements of abolition! We will consider the ways in which lateral oppr ession/violence between Black and Native communities (within the context o f the U.S.) have been used as tools of white supremacy\, settler colonial\ , and racial capitalism. \; And finally\, we will explore how we can m ove from simply envisioning a post-colonial world to realizing an authenti c liberated Black future and an actualized sovereign Indigenous future.
