Introducing Storytelling Night at UNE! The Mosquito in the Room: An Exploration of Racial Microaggressions

Introducing Storytelling Night at the University of New England!

THE MOSQUITO IN THE ROOM: AN EXPLORATION OF RACIAL MICROAGGRESSIONS

Co-Sponsored by The UNE School of Social Work, The Telling Room, and The Corner

So what is a racial mocroaggression?

It's like the elephant in the room except, well, it’s micro. Like a mosquito, it can't be ignored. And it really, really bothers. 

Tonight we hear tales about microaggressions from those who have received them and those who have spoken them. Through our telling, we hear about their effects in a supportive and fun environment, allowing ourselves to listen, grow, learn, and transform ourselves and the world.

Please Join us!

When: October 1st, 6-8 PM

Where: Ludcke Auditorium, Portland Campus, UNE

Refreshments will be available. Open to all!

Co-Hosted by:

Michael Sargent, Associate Professor of Psychology, Bates College
