While COVID-19 makes protesting in person even more dangerous than usual, international activists from Cape Town to Palestine have loudly proclaimed their support for the Black Lives Matter movement. Similarly, BLM activists have proclaimed their support for international allies protesting racial injustices and police violence across the world.

The symposium will feature three keynote speakers and a graduate student panel.
