Does the MRC work on programming?
The MRC sponsors, co-sponsors, and supports more than 300 academic, activist, social, and cultural events each academic year. This includes working with faculty, staff and especially students on 6-8 major programming series annually including the Indigenous Women’s Series, My Name is My Own Series, Black History Celebration, Latino/a Heritage Month, Asian American Heritage Month, Sexual Assault Awareness Month. Other recent examples of major MRC program collaborations are the Race and Resistance and Geographies of Displacement Symposia, Eli Clare’s Comparative American Studies mini-course on Disability Studies, and speakers like Peter J. Gomes and bell hooks.
