Social Justice Roundtable
Growing Allies has decided to pilot a Social Justice Roundtable
and we would like to invite your student organization to participate!
Thursday, March 14th from 5-8pm
**with a follow up meeting later in the semester**
This roundtable will bring together 2 leaders (preferably a veteran leader, newer member) from 6-7 student groups. To grapple in questions like:
- How do we effectively advocate with groups that are not represented in our membership?
- Social justice on campus happens in silos, how do we collaborate more and engage people outside the social justice network to care?
- We are so busy planning events/programming. How do we address and talk about identities within our group?
Through participation in the roundtable, we will strive to:
- Improve internal group dynamics of student organizations, especially how student groups support diversity within their organization and talk about identities
- Support leadership development of student leaders doing allyhood work
- Develop skills to work as allies in and with other communities
- Create a space for student leaders committed to allyhood to campus to connect, learn from one another, and collaborate
- Have fun getting together over a free dinner!
If you are interested please reply to growingallies@umich.edu and we can discuss the next steps.
