Left Out: Is Feminism Too White?

Black women are feeling invisible in the Women’s Movement. Laketa Smith will lead a discussion on the skepticism black women feel identifying as Feminists.

This will be an open and candid conversation about the intersection of Feminism and Race.  We welcome you to participate in what can be a complicated discussion and hope that it will enrich all of us.

Laketa Smith is a social work graduate student focusing on wealth inequality in the United States.

Here are a few articles to get you started:
