New co-curricular dialogue offered Fall 2023
Join us for a six (6) session, co-curricular, Intergroup Dialogue series for undergraduate and graduate students.
The focus of the dialogue is to unpack our relationship to/with fatness and explore how fatphobia, in connection to various other systems of oppression, has caused harm to ourselves and others. This dialogue is open to folks of all sizes, with a focus on centering the experiences of those who identify as fat.
Politics of the Body: Fatphobia and Body Talk is supported by the Intergroup Dialogue program and sponsored by the School of Education Joan N. Burstyn Collaborative Research grant. The dialogue is co-facilitated by Atiya McGhee, Ph.D. Student in the Cultural Foundations of Education program, and Linzy Andre, Ph.D. Candidate in Counseling and Counselor Education.
