The Social Justice Education Departmental Student Association (SJE DSA) warmly invites you to Session 2 of the SJE DSA Colloquium Series 2026, "Transnational Solidarities: Forging Abolitionist Communities” with a new focus on Leadership, Power, and Collective Resistance.

This colloquium series hopes to foster an opportunity for scholars, students, and community members to gather, connect, and explore how individuals and communities navigate, and resist the shifting landscapes of migration, belonging, and carcerality across communities. In a moment marked by rising xenophobia, anti-immigration sentiments, and increasingly exclusionary political rhetoric around race, gender, sexuality, and migration this gathering ask, “how can we foster meaningful solidarities across borders, identities, communities, and institutions?”

Join us as we engage the intersections of queer theory, feminisms, migration, incarceration, and education, while collectively creating space to share, imagine, and express visions of transnational solidarity. These sessions are all about showing up, having good conversations, and creating together!

Session 2 – Leadership, Power, and Collective Resistance

Exploring leadership through anti-colonial, feminist, womanist, and abolitionist frameworks. 

Date and Time: Thursday, March 26, 2026 / 6:00PM - 8:00PM

Location: OISE Room 12-219 

This session asks whose models of leadership get legitimised, and whose get erased. Drawing on Black feminist and womanism concepts, anti-colonial and Ubuntu leadership, and abolitionist traditions, we explore what leadership looks like when it is rooted in community, accountability, and care rather than authority and control.
