QIPOC

= Queer International &amp; People Of Color =

Mission Statement:
QIPOC is a closed group for self-identified queer people of color and international students in and around the Hampshire College community. QIPOC's work is a combination of community building and activism. We strive to create safe(r), accountable, and fully intentional spaces that value and honor our histories/herstories and our lived experiences as queer people and people of color. We reject the notions of choosing between those identities or placing one above the other.
