Add to calendar

In recognition of National Arab American Heritage Month, the Intercultural Diversity Center continues its TEDTalk Tuesday Series in featuring Nadine Naber. Award winning author, public speaker and activist inspires us to imagine what Arab feminism can offer to anyone interested in achieving gender and social justice globally and locally. Nadine Naber's Talk illustrates how stereotypical understandings of the concepts of both “Arab culture” and “feminism” lead many people to believe that Arab feminism is an oxymoron. Participants will learn this limiting belief to offer a new framework that allows people not only to understand that Arab feminism exists, but also the many kinds of “Arab feminism.” This event will take place on Tuesday, April 11, 2023 from 12-1pm in the Intercultural Diversity Center (2100 Student Center).
