3rd Annual "Breaking Silence: An Arts, Action, and Healing Summer Camp" Application
Thank you for your interest in AAPF's Breaking Silence Summer Camp, taking place July 19-24, 2017 at Vassar College in Poughkeepsie, NY.
At Summer Camp, we hope to:
-Create opportunities for personal healing and transformation among a cross-generational group of women and girls of color
-Explore the intersections of race, gender and sexuality through art forms such as spoken word, dramatic performance, extemporaneous presentation, and documentary making;
-Create an organizing and activist agenda to advance the needs of women and girls of color;
-Develop a national network of women and girls committed to working together to advance a gender-inclusive racial justice approach.
-Prepare interested organizers and testifiers to hold future town halls.
Please keep these objectives in mind as you fill out the application.
We have a limited number of scholarships to distribute, and will be prioritizing past testifiers, future organizers and family members of women and girls killed or abused by the police.
Everyone who is able to support their own participation will be accepted on a first come first served basis.
