""Our sense was that politicians are going around, trying to strip the students' ability to learn about things like gender, race, and sexuality. If schools are not going to be able to offer an actual education to students, we are going to go on tour. We're going to talk to students, and we're going to fill in those gaps as best we can.""
""There's just a lot of activity to take care of each other [and] make good spaces. It's really not supported by the adult infrastructure around them.""
""It's important to stand and resist," Nya Jacobson, one of the magazine's organizers, told the news outlet."
A feminist magazine is touring college campuses to host discussions on race, gender, and sexuality, addressing restrictions on these topics. The forums aim to counteract campus censorship and support diversity, equity, and inclusion programming. Organizers, including editor-in-chief Sarah Leonard, emphasize the need to fill educational gaps left by political efforts to limit discussions on identity. Many LGBTQ+ student organizations are particularly engaged, as institutional support for LGBTQ+ inclusion has diminished. The initiative is seen as a response to conservative campus debates and aims to create supportive spaces for students.
