Mission Statement
The Trinity Social Justice Initiative (TSJI) curates conversations in the public humanities. Through public lectures and conversations, a monthly webinar series, research clusters, conferences, and the creation of digital archives, we seek to contribute to public and scholarly debates about struggles for social justice in the United States and the world. We work in partnership with Prof. Davarian Baldwin’s Smart Cities Lab and alongside other groups on campus.
