Description

The Mosaic Center's Inspirational Talks series invites speakers each semester from all over the country to discuss personal experiences relating to their identity, research and/or global issues that impact diversity and inclusion. PAWTalks is an interactive, cultural sharing experience by highlighting the richness of the various cultures through speakers from around the country representing diverse backgrounds.

This talk features Ericka Hart (she/they) a black queer femme activist, writer, highly acclaimed speaker and award-winning sexuality educator with a Master’s of Education in Human Sexuality from Widener University. This program will explore the historical implications of sexual violence in the US, what feminism and neoliberalism have to do with the national discourse, and how it impacts all of us at our intersections.

Heavy hors d'oeuvres will be served! All undergrads, grads, staff, and faculty are encouraged to attend! For any questions, please email Erin Waddles, Coordinator for Student Diversity and Inclusion at waddles@umbc.edu or Campus Life’s Mosaic at mosaic@umbc.edu.
