Activist vs. Organizer: The Language of Social Justice Movements

The language used inside and outside social justice movements speaks volumes about what people believe the movement to be about. Yet often even those within a movement do not always agree on the terms. In this presentation, students Deysi Chitic-Amaya and Kayla Brooks, along with Faculty Advisor Dr. Nancy Kusmaul will discuss the lessons learned while collecting oral histories for From the Civil Rights Movement to Black Lives Matter: Oral Histories of the Lived Experience in Baltimore during co-lab 2021. More information on this co-lab project will be available on the Center for Social Science Scholarship’s new podcast series, available sometime during the 2021-2022 academic year.
