In honor of International Women’s Day, the UO Women’s Center proudly presents our annual Lyllye B. Parker Black, Indigenous and Women of Color Speaker Series featuring Ayisha Elliott of “Black Girl From Eugene” Podcast!

The Lyllye B. Parker Women of Color Speaker Series, named after longtime local advocate for Students of Color, Ms. Lyllye B. Parker, hosts a keynote speaker who addresses the intersections of racism, sexism and other systems of oppression Black, Indigenous and Women of Color face on individual, institutional and societal levels.

This event will include both a global and local perspective on privilege and oppression, beginning with education by WC International Student Coordinator Meghna Jain and move into a Fireside Chat with three generations of Black Women: Ayisha Elliott, WC Racial Justice Coordinator Danaya Lowe and Ms. Lyllye B. Parker herself!
