This symposium is held by the Portal Project.

This fall, from September 20-22, join us for a symposium where a thousand artists, activists, and scholars converge in Chicago to culminate the Portal Project. Join us as we transcend the traditional boundaries of both academia and activism, hosting our convergence that connects scholar-activists with community-based and movement-focused intellectuals and artists. Speakers will discuss a range of issues, including—abolition, economic democracy, climate justice, feminism, racial justice, and the threat of authoritarianism.
