The Office of Academic Programs, the Office of Institutional Equity and Belonging, and the Feminist & Gender Studies Department are excited to announce that we have partnered to bring you the 2024-25 Colorado College Common Read: Belonging: A Culture of Place <\/i>by bell hooks.<\/p>\n

To center our collective values of equity and belonging, as we commemorate 150 years of Colorado College, we are exploring what it means to have been a part of this broader community in the Southwest United States and how our present commitment to antiracism helps us reconcile the complex and traumatic history of the region.<\/p>\n

Traversing past and present,\u202fBelonging<\/i>\u202fcharts a cyclical journey in which hooks moves from place to place, from country to city and back again, only to discover that the places we call home are those where we can be our most authentic selves. As you read, we ask the CC community to consider: who is allowed to become a member of a community, and how do factors such as race, class, and gender shape our sense of belonging?
