  • Auburn University is sponsering a conference July 20-22. The third annual Southern Girls Conference (don't let the name fool you) will discuss many social justice/awareness issues through workshop, theater, music, film, poetry, and folk/art in the context of gender and sexuality. The conference will cover how these ideas/aspects of identity affect living in and being from the southern region of the U.S. This is not JUST a conference for southerners or JUST a conference for women. Gender issues, and many overlapping experiences exist cross-regionally. This will be an excellent occassion to meet, greet, and exchange ideas. Solidarity through dialogue!
