Description
“Hispanic?” “Latino?” “Latinx?” “Latine?” Join us for the opportunity to learn all about the various identifiers that have been ascribed, used, and reclaimed by the Latin-American community. Explore the nuances of the social construction of the ethnic and racial diversity, as well how language has been shaped by the experiences of underrepresented groups within the Latine diaspora.
The "What's the Tea?" series is geared towards exploring social justice needs for various marginalized populations. We all talk about how diverse UMBC is but, what does that mean in reality? How does it show up in how we communicate and interact with each other? When does celebrating diversity shift into inclusivity that creates positive social change in and outside our campus community? This series hopes to help us grapple with these questions. Join us for a facilitated discussion of these topics, voice your opinions, and hear those of your fellow community members.
This event is open to all UMBC community members!
