CLACS affiliate professor Magdalena Novoa is presenting "Exercising Memory, Imagining Futurities: Black and Latinx Stories of Hope and Care" at the 2024 Black and Latinx Summit!

The Black and Latinx Summit is an annual conference and summit that seeks to bring students from all intersections into a shared space to learn and connect. This focus is an intentional understanding of the traumas that communities of color in the United States have faced both historically and contemporarily. It is also cognizant of the strides we take each day to heal our wounds and better prepare us for the next change in our circumstances. By creating this space, we hope others will join us in exploring the landscape of our communities and finding ways to make us stronger as a collective.
