Symposium to examine the line between indigenous people and settlers

The boundary between indigenous communities and settler society will be explored during a symposium this Thursday and Friday presented by the Oregon Humanities Center’s Indigenous Philosophies Research Interest Group.

The symposium, “Colonial and Decolonial Connections,” takes place April 30 and May 1 at several campus locations. All events are free and open to the public.

Take Back the Night rally and march starts on campus April 30

The UO’s EMU amphitheater will once again serve as the launching point for the 37th annual Take Back the Night protest march, an annual international event that draws attention to the realities of sexual violence.

The rally begins at 6 p.m. Thursday, April 30, and marchers will leave the amphitheater at 7 p.m. They will then march to downtown Eugene, gathering at the Atrium Building at the corner of 10th Avenue and Olive Street for a speak-out featuring survivors of sexual assault.
