“Feminism: Old School, New School, or Classic?”

“I do not want you to ignore my identity, nor do I want you to make it an insurmountable barrier between our sharing of strengths… I am your sister.” Audre Lord
An Open Discussion with Faculty and Students: How do issues of Diversity and Gender present 
themselves to the current generation of women at Saint Anselm College: Are women still struggling against a male-centered system of oppression and privilege? Are they newly empowered to take on the world on their own terms? Or are there types of women’s issues that still apply and are relevant across the generations.
Homemade Food and Refreshments will be served! Yum!
