Social Justice Symposium Flagstaff Arts & Leadership Academy 2021

Art Work by FALA students/alumni: Natalia Donohue, Alandra Duyongwa, Minz Weibezal, Indira Neilson, Dylan Jackson, & Sophie Collier

The symposium seeks to educate on the five main principles of social justice: access to resources, equity, participation, diversity and human rights. We also wish to integrate Bryan Stevenson's: Four Steps to Change the World:

  1. We have to get approximate to the problems we care about.
  2. We have to change the narrative.
  3. We have to remain hopeful.
  4. Sometimes we have to do uncomfortable things.

We seek to explore with our community on what is going on in society with Schooling/Learning, BIPOC, Mental Health/Ableism, Climate/Environmental Justice, and LGBTQ+. These issues were suggested by FALA Students.

The Social Justice Symposium is co-curated by Janeece Henes & Mike Levin. collaborators: YPAR Class, Allison Gruber, Kim Khatibi, Janine Birchard, Betsy Hamill, Melissa Burnstein, and Lauren Cain, Nina Porter, and Indigenous Youth Club
