1/16 MARCOM
This past fall, the Humanities Institute sought to confront some of the devastating effects of the intersecting forms of violence committed against people of marginalized identities in the contemporary United States. In the face of these crises, there are people doing tremendous work of intervention, agitation, and resistance—work that is constant, multifaceted, simultaneous, and that perseveres.
This spring, the Humanities Institute welcomes scholars, artists, activists, dancers, poets, writers, and musicians who are using their intellect and talents to further the discussions of systemic and overt violence. As agents of change, they further the urgent and necessary work of dismantling systems of inequality and social injustice, and they inspire the activism and calls for social justice that will better shape our world.
