Action Conversations on Race: Gender-based Violence, Racism, and the State

On the third Wednesday of every month, YWCA Greater Pittsburgh’s Center for Race and Gender Equity presents Action Conversations on Race, a panel discussion dedicated to racial justice. Featuring local experts and leaders in fields such as equity and diversity, policy change, and advocacy, these conversations are designed to build community and create change.

Gender-based violence is often considered an interpersonal or “private” form of violence. Yet, violence against women, BIPOC people, and LGBTQIA2S+ folx is ingrained in the U.S. legal, educational, and health systems. In recognition of YWCA’s annual Week Without Violence, join us in conversation on October 19, 2022 from 12-1 EST as our panelists help deepen our understanding of gender, race, and state-sanctioned violence.
