SFCC will be running monthly events as part of a year-long speaker series between April 2022 and March 2023.
<p id="">Each month, the Beyond Consent speaker series hosts grassroots activists and allies in the anti-violence movements in order to educate, inspire, and train new generations of leaders, communities, and organizations in the fight to end violence.</p><p id="">On March 29 at 10am PT / 1pm ET, join us for the LAST event of this 12-month series. Two former SFCC Chairs will lead a participatory discussion that collectivises dreams for care-based learning environments and futures without violence. An integral component of building these futures includes weaving them into the organizing we do today. We will identify the structures that allow dreaming and future-making to happen in current movements and will collectively dream about this work.</p><p id="">Reminder: Students attending this event are eligible to receive a micro-credential for their participation.
