Effective Allyship and Advocacy with the ACLU’s Amber Hikes
The March 26 event is part of the ongoing series From the Ashes of Relentless Racial Crises: Creating a New United States of America.
Prepare to dive deep into an interdisciplinary exploration of Latin America and the Caribbean.
Approaching every facet of the region, from its history, culture, politics, economics and geography, you will have the opportunity to begin a lifelong relationship with this vibrant and dynamic part of the world and its complex past and contemporary issues.
You’ll be encouraged to study the region’s language and immerse yourself in the culture both on campus and abroad in accessible study away programs that can range from semester-long to a few weeks.
We are committed to an inclusive definition of Latin America, the Caribbean and Latinx identities. As a result, our program engages with the long shadow of colonization and its lasting effects as well as the powerful resistance of those formerly under colonial rule.
With courses and extracurricular offerings that examine how race and racism have emerged and shaped the region, our program intentionally de-centers nationalist constructions and instead explores and uplifts the experiences of Black and indigenous populations.
