Join us for a powerful conversation on gender criminalization, authoritarianism, and agency with Andrea Ritchie. This event will explore how systems of policing and surveillance disproportionately impact marginalized communities while examining the broader rise of authoritarian practices.

Andrea Ritchie is a writer, lawyer, and activist for women of color, especially LGBTQ women of color, who have been victims of police violence. Drawing on her extensive work as a scholar, organizer, and author, Ritchie will unpack the ways in which gender is used as a tool of control within legal and social systems.
