Building Green Justice Forum 2017

From Huston-Tillotson University –

Huston-Tillotson University will host the fourth annual Building Green Justice Forum, with this year’s theme being “Organic Activistology.” We are inviting presenters and participants to reflect on their roles as organic activists – thinkers and doers who reflect their community’s history,values, and knowledge and who engage to direct the community as leaders and organizers. This exploration includes an analysis of the broader frame of environmental justice work, including tensions, conflicts, power sources, intersectionalities, and motivations. We want to use this model of activism to understand environmental justice history and draw lessons for the future of the work.

The forum is brought to you by Huston-Tillotson University, Green is the New Black, and the Dumpster Project. Please contact the organizers http://tinyurl.com/bgj2017 for more information on presenting, sponsoring, and attending.
