Beyond the University: Radical Abolitionist Feminists Organising for Liveable Futures

Event Date(s): 21/02/2024

Location: Online


On Wednesday February 21 at 12:00 p.m. to 1:30 p.m., join The University of Toronto's Professor Beverly Bain for an engaging discussion. At this seminar, Professor Bain will explore the concept of collective organizing to create liberatory learning, teaching and liveable spaces. Drawing and building from the radical abolitionist work of Ruth Wilson Gilmore and other Black Canadian radical feminist activists, scholars and organizers in Toronto, this discussion challenges compensatory individualism and confronts practices of inclusion and diversity in society and in the academic environment that work to perpetuate and maintain anti-Blackness, racism and settler colonialism. Professor Bain will provide examples of abolitionist practices aimed at envisioning and crafting sustainable, inclusive learning environments and futures.
