No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups.

The Atlanta Global Studies Center (AGSC) and the Center for Latin American and Latinx Studies (CLALS) present the first of a three-part moderated web series on Social Justice and Human Trafficking.
In the first of the series, members of the Alliance for Cross-Media Storytelling and Performance [ACMSP] present "Exploring Crossover Projects in Art & Social Justice". They will describe past and current projects that empower students to use art and media to understand and engage in social justice movements, such as the fight to end human trafficking. These faculty will share their experiences and project outcomes and offer a model for engagement.
All are invited to attend, including faculty, students, and the public.
A link to the webinar will be sent to the email address you provide on the day of the event.
