Friday, April 12, 12:00 - 5:30 PM EDT - Online

Join CENTRO - the Center for Puerto Rican Studies at Hunter College, for a virtual symposium “At the edge of each other’s battles”: Puerto Rican, Palestinian, Black, & Indigenous Futures which convenes scholars and writers to examine the legacies of colonialism, dispossession, and solidarity practices across a series of overlapping experiences. Using the word of Audre Lorde as a point of departure, this day of panels asks us to imagine possibilities of developing relations across differences in pursuit of collective liberation.
