Action Conversations on Race Spring 2023

March 15, 2023: White Feminism
While suffering the damaging impact of sexism and other oppressions, white women still benefit from racial privilege. Panelists identify common ways in which white women act out racial privilege through weaponized tears, white fragility, saviorism, exclusionary feminism, and entitled “Karen” behaviors. This conversation identifies pathways to true interracial solidarity through more intentional and informed white anti-racist feminism.

April 19, 2023: Cannabis and Racial Justice
From Reefer Madness to the War on Drugs, cannabis prohibition has disproportionately impacted Black and Brown communities, namely as a key contributor to mass incarceration. Our panelists discuss if legalization and criminal record expungement can redress the systemic racism of cannabis prohibition policies and drug law enforcement. Looking toward a more equitable future, panelists also envision ways to center racial justice within the burgeoning medical marijuana industry.

May 17, 2023: Antisemitism and White Supremacy
Antisemitic violence is deeply connected to white supremacy culture. In collaboration with National Council of Jewish Women (NCJW) Pittsburgh, our conversation addresses the rise in antisemitism as well as racism against Jews of color as we seek opportunities to unite against white supremacy.
