R274. CANCELLED: After Sexual Misconduct: A Community Dialogue for Survivors and Allies
Status: Not Accepted
Thursday, March 5, 2020
3:20 pm to 4:35 pm
What comes after survival? Through this facilitated dialogue, we hope to create an intentional space for those whose writing has been shaped by sexual misconduct to come together, find solidarity, and discuss ways that we can continue to free our communities from violence, while fostering personal, collective, and creative healing. Open to all survivors and allies.
