Workshop: Active Citizenship

What does it mean to be an active citizen? Does it mean to vote? To protest? To run for office? Or does it mean to participate in activism in another way? Now more than ever active citizenship is necessary for our mutual success in the pursuit of justice. But there are so many debates regarding what active citizenship looks like. This workshop will explore the different stages of active citizenship and what an active citizen looks like. Note: citizenship in this workshop does not refer to legal status, but rather someone’s community. One does not need to be a legally recognized citizen to be an active citizen.
