A Conversation: Student Organizers Reflect on the 2018 Youth Summit

This is a conversation between University of Puget Sound graduating seniors Kaity Calhoun and Collin Noble about the 4th RPI Youth Summit which occurred during the 2018 Race & Pedagogy National Conference. Comprised of about 500 middle and high school students and college student volunteers, the Youth Summit worked to engage in conversation revolving around histories of power, expressions of resistance and new actions for justice. With over 100 University of Puget Sound Student volunteers, these two organizers were pivotal in making sure the event day was successful. Their work would not have been possible without the leadership of the Youth Summit committee particularly the co-chairs: Sonja Morgan (RPI Community Partner), Jade Cooper (High School Student), and Kaity Calhoun (UPS Student) who is represented in this interview
