Fostering & Sustaining Allyship at Georgetown
Date and time
Description
Join Georgetown University's Peace Education class for Fostering & Sustaining Allyship: A Dialogue on Understanding Privilege.
This teach-in on allyship seeks to address systemic identity-based violence emboldened by the current political climate - such violence impacts individuals at Georgetown and across the country. Our privileges, as students at Georgetown, often perpetuate ignorance in the face of inherent discrimination and structural violence in our community. Therefore, it is imperative that we cultivate allyship to act against injustice.
Being an ally means immersing ourselves and engaging in tangible action towards combating the prejudices that our peers face as well as encouraging others to do the same. Through interactive exercises and dialogue, we hope to create a space for reflection on what allyship means and how we can be active allies in our community.
