Coming Soon: Latinx Perspectives
May 13, 2021
We’re looking forward to the next ethnic studies panel discussion this Friday, May 14, at 2:30 p.m., focusing on Chicanx/Latinx perspectives and hosted by the Intercultural and International Studies Division.
We've also been talking with members of De Anza's Latinx community about topics to
feature in the CAN/DID Inclusion Series during the next academic year. You can check out our latest video trailer on social
media and at deanza.edu/candid.
Over the past year, we’ve been examining important topics related to equity and social justice, with videos and social media posts about the Black Lives Matter movement and anti-Asian racism.
We will continue to address important issues during the 2021-2022 academic year, with installments focused on topics that are important to De Anza's Latinx and LGBTQ+ communities, among others.
