Join us at the Institute of Women\u2019s and Gender Studies on Thursday Oct 15, 1-2 pm<\/strong>, for another in a series of informal discussions that will accompany our more formal events.   In our October 1 discussion of the Scholar Strike Canada teach-ins, many people expressed concerns about the current state of the university and their positions within it as both faculty and students.  For this next event, we will follow up with further exploration of our lived experience of current systemic conditions in response to the question, \u201chow does it feel?\u201d \u2013 where the \u201cit\u201d could be defined variously as academia, racialized capital, the pandemic, and\/or everyday life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To receive the Zoom link for next Thursday\u2019s event,  please register at:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
