Feminist Politics 2016 and Beyond Departmental Fundraiser

feminist
October 6, 2016
5:00 pm - 7:30 pm
The Fawcett Event Center 2400 Olentangy River Rd Columbus, Ohio, 43210

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?

Panelists

Julie Graber, Founder and CEO, GenderEQA

Dr. Wendy Smooth, Associate Professor, WGSS

Dr. Cynthia Burack, Professor, WGSS

Dr. Shannon Winnubst (Moderator), Chair and Professor, WGSS

Commit to a Feminist Future

The Department of Women’s, Gender and Sexuality Studies at Ohio State is one of the largest and oldest departments of feminist studies in the United States.  We offer doctoral, master’s and bachelor’s degrees in the interdisciplinary study of social difference, with a foundation in feminist commitments to theory and praxis.  In the effort to continue building a 21st century feminist liberal arts and graduate education, we are embracing the contemporary reality of fund-raising at the departmental level in public research institutions.  

Each ticket includes one drink ticket and hors d'oevures. A portion of your ticket cost will be tax deductible as a charitable gift. We have five levels of ticket prices below to allow you to choose the level that best suits your budget.

Your gift will have an immediate impact on our feminist, globalized curriculum, scholarship, and community outreach. Your gift will be used to support departmental programming, undergraduate initiatives such as study abroad, graduate research, and international faculty scholarship. We thank you for your generous commitment to the feminist community at Ohio State University and beyond.
