The MRISJ Civic Speaker Series Presents:
Taking Action for Social Justice: A Conversation with Feminista Jones
Social justice can start with you. Feminista Jones joins MRISJ as we explore how you can take action to create change. We’ll be discussing the ways activists leverage social media to organize movements, how Black women lead change in culture and society through digital communities, and how intersectional feminism helps ensure everyone has a seat at the table.
Author of the critically acclaimed "Reclaiming Our Space: How Black Feminists Are Changing the World From the Tweets to the Streets", Jones is a writer, public speaker, community activist, social worker and podcaster. Her work centers around gender equity, queer identity, racial/cultural identity, intersectionality, mental health and social work.
This event is offered as part of our 2023 MLK programming celebrating the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. This year's theme is "it starts with me," sign up now to how you can take action for social justice!
