Please provide a brief description of the program:
This program was designed to facilitate dialogue across very
different groups on campus. It consisted of a workshop on White Supremacy in
the Gay Rights Movement. It also, had an incredible spoken word performance by
a group called “Dark Matter.”
Please list any materials/items/supplies needed for the
program, as well as an approximate budget:
This program costs about 3500 for honorarium and travel of
the performers and workshop facilitators.
In your opinion, what made this program such a success?
The group “DarkMatter” was the biggest success of the
program because they are brilliant, movement builders and are dedicated to
restorative justice. Also, advertising and planning ahead was key.
