Join the University of Minnesota community in sharing our truths about our lived realities as people of "diverse" communities at this institution. We hope to heal together, cultivate community, and challenge the mainstream narratives of diversity the U portrays.
We will have equipment and materials on hand to share our testimonies through photography, video, online platforms e.g. Twitter and Tumblr, and through artwork. All collected testimonies will be shared on our online media sites.
In inviting people to share their stories, we are conscious of the risks some people are taking and that some folks may feel uncomfortable with more visible platforms. We are committed to maintaining peoples confidentiality and creating a safe space. Therefore, we will also provide avenues for sharing sensitive stories, and a separate space to decompress for folks who may need it afterwards.
If for any reason you cannot make it to the event, please feel free to share your testimonies with us via email at [email protected] and on Twitter using the hashtag: #WhoseDiversityUMN
