The UNDOCU storytelling seminar series is chaired by a committee of Penn State graduate students and staff who either have a former undocumented status or come from mixed status families.
The first seminar was an information session moderated by Dean Romero, Lyana Sunbhanchang and Romi Roman held on Oct. 3.
The second webinar, on Oct. 17, 6 – 8 p.m., will allow the various moderators to share their “Intersectional Stories”. These five moderators are POWERHOUSE artists/ activists who come from diverse and intersectional backgrounds, including Danyeli Rodrigues del Orbe, Armando Ibanez, Diana Chacon, Pages Matam and Anni Liu.
The third webinar, on Oct. 30,6 - 7:30 p.m., will be a self-reflection writing workshop. This workshop will allow attendees to reflect on the past webinars and their personal experiences. Grace Talusan, author and lecturer in English at Brown University, will moderate this session.
The webinars are free and available to anyone within or outside of the Penn State community. Registration is required for both of the upcoming webinars. To register for the intersectional stories webinar on Oct. 17, click here. To register for the self-reflection workshop on Oct. 30, click here.
