"Call for Workshops! Confronting Racism: Building United Movements Ohio Conference
The Organize CBUS Collective is a network of OSU students and community members in columbus, ohio formed to set up and facilitate the state-wide Confronting Racism: Building United Movements conference. The theme for the conference will be “Connecting the dots: racism and issues of global capitalism.” We envision a conference with workshops and action-oriented discussions exposing the interconnectedness of racism with issues of global capitalism affecting us locally such as:
* affordable housing
* employment justice
* access to healthcare
* public transportation
* immigration
* environmental and food justice
* police brutality and prison abolition
* physical and sexual violence
* queer & trans liberation
* indigenous solidarity
* militarism, and more.
This is an opportunity to examine our common ground within seemingly separate issues and develop a unified voice of resistance against global capitalism and imperialism as we continue building a collective liberation movement in Ohio. We are committed to building an anti-racist, anti-imperialist, multiracial, feminist, queer and trans liberationist, anti-authoritarian movement against global capitalism and promoting the understanding that there are multiple valid approaches to doing this work. Please come and let us hear your voice.
We are now accepting proposals for workshops that speak to our stated theme and that folks in Ohio might find particularly interesting. for more info about the event and how to submit proposals visit our website: organizecbus.blogspot.com"
