2022 Annual Conference Keynote: Confronting Privilege and Bridging the Gap: From Rhetoric and Mission Statements to Transformative Change and Social Justice in Higher Education

Monday, May 16, 12:45-2:00pm Eastern Daylight Savings Time

With support from the Federation for the Humanities and Social Sciences International Keynote Speaker Support Fund

Speaker: Dr. D-L Stewart, Morgridge College of Education, University of Denver

A leading researcher, practitioner, and activist-scholar dedicated to championing social justice and transforming the culture and climate of campuses and institutions of higher education, D-L Stewart has been an influential voice shaping the terms of debate throughout North America, including the Federation’s own Igniting Change report, which was so widely adopted last year as a call-to-action. Dr. Stewart’s keynote address will build on the sustained EDID conversations of both the Federation and the CSSHE and be of interest to those throughout the HSS and education communities. Drawing on Dr. Stewart’s established and ranging expertise, this presentation will critically examine institutional norms, and focus on moving beyond what ze refers to as “the language of appeasement” and rhetorical “Kool Aid” approaches to diversity and inclusion. The emphasis will instead be placed on disrupting the status quo and highlighting conscious pathways that lead to transformative action, equity and justice on our campuses.

The CSSHE and the Federation of the Humanities and Social Sciences are committed to Reconciliation and EDID and have established records of working collaboratively with members of the broader educational community to anchor these principles into the life and work of our associations, institutions, and professional practices. Each member of this panel is a top researcher, practitioner, and institutional leader who has helped deepen recognition of the importance of EDID and the need for social justice throughout our institutional structures and educational systems. They will be asked to discuss ways we might increase BIPOC and LGBTQI representation in education; explore ways we can address systemic privilege in our institutions; and consciously work to disrupt the status quo and clear pathways to transformative action, equity and justice on our campuses.
