Past is Present:
History, Social Movements, and Justice
Third Annual Undergraduate and Graduate Student Conference
Roosevelt University April 1, 2011      

Roosevelt University Sociological Society and History Club invite undergraduate and graduate students for a conference that will interrogate the ideas, protest politics, and culture of movements and moments of social justice, past and present.  While we encourage papers that make this comparison, we also welcome papers that look at either historical social justice issues or contemporary ones. We seek to foster discussion across disciplines on both the nature of challenges confronting communities as well as possible solutions that can be pursued
