Stories of Resistance: A Conversation with Matthew R. Morris

Join us for an engaging discussion on masculinity featuring Matthew R. Morris, acclaimed educator, speaker, and author of Black Boys Like Me. Drawing on his scholarship and personal narrative, Morris interrogates how race, gender, culture, and educational spaces intersect to shape identity and belonging. 

Date: Tuesday, February 10, 2026
Time: 1-3pm
Location: Catalyst Centre (EV-151|152)

Light refreshments will be served.

This event is part of the Stories of Resistance series—an initiative dedicated to centering conversations on gender, safety, and body politics. Through thought-provoking dialogue, we aim to unpack dominant narratives that influence how we see ourselves and others, and to imagine new possibilities for resistance and transformation.
