Black Feminist Genealogies:
The Making of SOLHOTLex
Wednesday, May 31st, 10‐11:30am
UCSD Women’s Center, Conference Room
(Food will be served)
Dr. Chamara Jewel Kwakye and Mekha McGuire will discuss their process of expanding SOLHOT from its original location in Urbana‐Champaign, Illinois to Lexington, Kentucky. They will answer questions on how frameworks like womanism and post‐colonial feminist theory inform engagement around solidarity in SOLHOT‐Lex and organizing Black girls while examining what critically engaged organizing looks like when the voices of Black girls are in symphony with the rest of the world’s resistance struggles.
