Thinking creatively about how we build and sustain our shared community values, this interactive session will bring all new and current CWS students together to brainstorm and start building a collective manifesto of our core community principles. We will think about what we, collectively, feel are crucial values we must sustain and continuously care for as a community: what do we stand for? What can we not stand for? What are the values we can write down together in order to make sure our community is free from racism, transphobia, homophobia, xenophobia, and other forms of discrimination? What does our collective feminism look like?
