Ijeoma Oluo of The Establishment Talks About Cultural Appropriation on October 26/17

Ijeoma OluoEspecially in light of the drama these last few months in Canadian publishing around the topic, Ijeoma will talk about how a shift in the way in which we approach issues of cultural appropriation is needed if we want to move forward in a productive and just way, and focus on some of the fundamental misunderstandings that make cultural appropriation such a thorny issue.
