Just last year in May of 2018, we witnessed the resurrection of Resurrection City as the new Poor People’s Campaign continued the fight against poverty, structural racism, voter suppression, militarism, and a host of others.

Resistance Strategies for Black Graduate Students in Higher Education
Being a Black woman at a predominantly White institution (PWI), I experience simultaneously racialized and gendered encounters that leave me feeling anxious and incensed. The social justice spaces that I found in graduate school help me to navigate challenging experiences and to speak truth to power. I share this brief composition as a testament to the strategies of resistance that my peers, colleagues, faculty and I use to persist in higher education.

Solange, Black Women & Politics
Several years ago, when my political science colleagues and I were revising our curriculum, I made the argument that we needed to add to our required courses a class that focused on women and politics. Philander Smith College mission is centered on social justice, so it made sense that in our program that we would focus on communities that are often overlooked or understudied in the academy. Therefore we adopted this course along with Black politics and African politics as part of our core curriculum.
