Join us for Shades: Media Representation of Us from 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM in the Diversity Center. Together, we'll watch a short film exploring how media portrays QTPOC (Queer & Trans People of Color) and discuss the impact of representation, the harm of assumptions, and how we can create spaces where people feel truly seen, heard, and valued.

Shades is a discussion-based event series open to all UIS students, faculty, and staff. The goal of this series is to create a safe and affirming space where we can explore topics of identity while bringing together QTPOC students and allies on campus. Light snacks and refreshments will be provided.

Open to UIS students, faculty, and staff.

For questions or accommodation requests, contact us at GSS@uis.edu or 217-206-8316.
