Collective care can be a powerful form of resistance. This drop-in space can be whatever is needed by Black students who would like to join. We can debrief experiences of anti-black racism, provide mutual support around race-related stress, share unique experience of being a Black student at UW, and celebrate resiliencies and Black joy.
