Virtual Group for Students
white Women's* Accountability & Action Group
Join Student Counseling Services and the Women's Center for a virtual community of learning, accountability and action for STUDENTS! We’ll discuss:
- how we are impacted by our socialization at the intersections of racial privilege & gender-based oppression
- how we perpetuate the harm of white supremacy (despite our good intentions)
- how we can work towards racial & gender justice in our selves, our relationships, our institutions & our world
* We warmly welcome any undergrad, graduate, and professional students who have been socialized into “whiteness” and “womanhood” at any point in their lives. We welcome those who identify as white, as well as indigenous and people of color who may be read as white and/or experience white passing privilege. We welcome cis women, trans women, and AFAB trans/non-binary folks. We trust and respect how you self-identify, and we want you in this group if you believe your experiences are aligned with our intentions. If you have questions or concerns about the language and framing we’ve provided here, please contact us to share your feedback.
The group will be co-facilitated by:
- Meredith Martyr, PhD, LP, HSP (she/her) - Student Counseling Services &
- Anna Lifson, MSW, LICSW (she/they) - Women's Center
Group will be held virtually on Wednesdays from 1:30pm - 2:45pm from October 11th to December 6th, 2023 (no meeting the day before Thanksgiving).
Please feel free to contact Meredith at marty031@umn.edu with any questions or concerns.
