In this historic election season, the stakes and claims of “feminist politics” seem higher and more complex than ever. Please join us for an evening of candid conversation with WGSS faculty about the most salient issues before voters this presidential election cycle. How are drone warfare, immigration, #BlackLivesMatter, equal pay, paid sick leave, and reproductive justice all a part of feminist politics? And what does this election communicate about the state of 21st century feminist politics?
