Just wanted to send out a reminder that our roundtable with Professor Busby is on Thursday, January 23rd, at 12:00 and will be held in room 205.
The roundtable is titled “What Should Happen Next in the Lori Douglas Inquiry?”
In September 2012 the FLF co-hosted an event on the Douglas Inquiry with the Centre for Human Rights Research. Anyone who wants to read the write-up about that event can do so here: https://feministlegalforum.wordpress.com/2012/09/14/douglas-inquiry-discussion-at-robson-hall/
It should be an interesting topic! Please come out and join us for the first roundtable of 2014!
Second, we have another roundtable planned for Thursday, February 13th, at 12:00 (no room yet). The tentative title for this event is “Judy Wasylycia-Leis talks power politics and feminism”
The speaker for this event will be Judy Wasylycia-Leis, a former MLA, MP and 2010 Mayoral Candidate.
The topic for this roundtable is still being worked out, but women in politics/positions of power has been discussed as a possible topic, as well as possibly Ms. Wasylycia-Leis’ experiences training women in Pakistan. So once we have more solid details on this event we will let you all know.
So, for now mark your calendars!
As always everyone is welcome to bring their lunches to the roundtables. There may also be some tasty treats provided. We hope to see a big turnout for both events!
