IME Wokeshop Series
The purpose of the WOKEshop series is to engage in critical reflection, dialogue with people from different backgrounds, explore various identities, and understand systemic privilege and oppression. IME WOKEshops are peer-facilitated to create a student space for dialogue.
Woke [adj]: The awareness of our specific impacts and the lack thereof around societal issues. It is raising our individual consciousness in our daily choices and behaviors regardless of who we are.
All IME WOKEshops are free to attend and everyone is welcome!
