Media Advisory: Marquette to host Justice in Action conference Saturday

February 21, 2019


MILWAUKEE – Marquette University will host the Justice in Action conference Saturday, Feb. 23, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. in the Alumni Memorial Union, 1442 W. Wisconsin Ave.

This one-day conference will help students explore their role in affecting social change, especially in the context of a Jesuit institution. Discussions will be led by students, faculty, staff and community leaders.

The conference will provide entry-level discussions around allyship, privilege, volunteerism and social justice issues, as well as more advanced skill-building for students who already identify as advocates and activists. The day will also include historical perspectives on social movements in Milwaukee, space for reflection and an expression project.

Media interested in covering this event should contact Anne Broeker, communication specialist, at anne.broeker@marquette.edu.
