Online event

Facilitated by: Leslie Dwyer, Associate Professor, Carter School

In the aftermath of the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe vs. Wade, how can we still talk about “peace” in the United States? Does this moment demand a critique of hegemonic framings of conflict resolution as consensus, common ground, or shared narrative? For the first time in over a century a constitutional right has been taken away from a class of Americans, with a disproportionate impact on communities of color and marginalized groups. Post-Roe includes living under the threat that more rights might be stripped away.

Leslie Dwyer, Associate Professor, Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter School for Peace and Conflict Resolution

Susan Hirsch, Professor and Vernon and Minnie Lynch Chair of Conflict Analysis and Anthropology, Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter School for Peace and Conflict Resolution

Tehama Lopez Bunyasi, Associate Professor, Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter School for Peace and Conflict Resolution

The core values of HRE USA and its partner organizations include transparency and critical thinking skills. We believe that human rights--and human rights education--belong to everyone, and that the full realization of human rights means that access to human rights education materials must never be conditioned upon the subscription to any particular religious faith, ideology, political affiliation, or membership in any particular organization and that any organizational connections should be openly acknowledged.
