12:30 PM - 1:45 PM Decolonize! Keynote “Defund the Police: What it Means & What Must Be Done”
A consistent call coming out of nationwide protests is to Defund the Police and Abolish the Police. What do these demands mean in practice? How can we transform our communities and end a policing institution born out of the system of chattel slavery and fueled by white supremacy? The police brutality and violence we have been witnessing is also linked to the ongoing militarization of local police forces. The resources that police departments drain away from community needs like health care, education, and housing has to end. Some cities are already in motion - Minneapolis is dismantling its police department, a number of cities are moving money from bloated police budgets to Black and Brown communities. New legislation in Congress aims to end and punish police misconduct. This is a timely presentation that will bring clarity to a sometimes confusing topic.

Presented by 
Dr. Melina Abdullah 
3:00 PM - 4:30 PM Decolonize! "UndocuAlly Training"
Certificate training to equip faculty and staff with the tools and knowledge of what is an undocumented student and how to appropriately and inclusiveness serve them in a "student first" campus environment.
 
Presented by 
Aldo Cruz-Vázquez
4:30 PM - 6:30 PM **CANCELLED** Decolonize! "Race Conversations"
Please join us for Butte’s Race Conversations! This session is with you and up to 11 other Butte friends with an exercise recommended by the USC Race and Equity Center calls, “Race Taboos.” Prior to our meeting, all participants will submit 1 question about race that you want to pose to attendees. Questions will be randomly selected for discussion and presented anonymously. We are looking for honest race questions that can lead to true understanding and change when it comes to race and racism on campus.

Please submit questions to Lisa Bernal-Wood at bernalwoodli@butte.edu. There is no limit to the number of sessions you attend. Race Conversations is a safe space for healthy race conversations and is open to all Butte employees and students!
