Connect Sydney: Anti-oppression and intersectionality

This workshop, facilitated by Hue. Colour the Conversation examines the logics of oppressive systems and how they are rooted in colonialism and racial capitalism, as well as

the ways intersectionality relates to these systems of power.

Participants reflect on their own positionality within these structures and apply a critical lens to understanding intersectionality, including its limitations in advancing collective liberation. The session fosters critical thinking, self-reflection, and strategies for engaging with systems of oppression in more equitable and conscious ways.

The workshop uses a mix of group work,facilitated discussion and personal reflection to achieve objectives. The sessions are co-facilitated by facilitators who are women, transgender, gender diverse and/or people of colour and experts in their lived experiences.

Limit of two people per organisation.
