Rise Above "-Isms" Week 10/31-11/4

Rise Above Week provides opportunities for us to dialogue as a community about how to further justice and take steps to eradicate the oppressions that hurt us all. These steps help move us towards a world where your oppression is not acceptable to me, and mine is not acceptable to you.
