Date: 2022-12-06

In times of political upheaval and change, student organizing always plays a role. We’re living in such a time right now. Journalist Liza Featherstone, who has chronicled campus activism of the past, talked with Willamette students about its recent history. She also discussed how and why the campus is such an obsession for left and the right alike, and how, by looking beyond the latest outbreak of viral outrage, students can best use their power, influence, and access to public attention. This event is sponsored by the Student Solidarity Union as well as the Whipple Chair, CAFES, and the Sociology, English, Economics, History, PPLE, Public Health, and WGS departments.
