The Power of History

Please join Susan Oberman for a talk about the second wave of feminism on March 29 at 7:00 p.m. via ZOOM.

Susan Oberman is the director of Common Ground Negotiation Services, a private conflict resolution practice offering negotiation coaching, mediation, group facilitation, and workshops, since 1999. She was one of the founders of the Women’s Liberation Center of Nassau County on Long Island in 1972.

She is currently project manager for the Hannah Arendt Center Dialogue Project. Her work to promote dialogue, spanning more than 50 years, is based on good will. Good will requires respect for and openness to those with opinions and ideas that differ from our own. In both the public and private arenas, participants must determine their own and others’ good will before deciding to engage in dialogue.

This event is sponsored by the Women and Gender Studies Program and is free and open to the public. Email Professor Johanna Fisher at fisherj@canisius.edu for a link to the event. ZOOM doors open at 6:45 p.m.
