Community Enrichment Series Speaker: Ana Maria Archila

Thu, Apr 4, 2019 7pm to 8:30pm

BGSU Firelands, Cedar Point Center Auditorium (Rm. 1001)

FREE & OPEN TO THE PUBLIC
On September 28, 2018, in Washington, DC, Ana Maria Archila made national headlines as one of two women, both survivors of sexual violence, who confronted U.S. Senator Jeff Flake in an elevator as he was getting ready to support the Supreme Court nomination of Brett Kavanaugh.  “What are you doing, sir?  This is the future of our country!” she said.  What Are You Doing, Sir?  This is the Future of Our Country!, describing Archila’s experiences, will take place on Thursday, April 4, 2019 at 7:00 p.m., in Room 1001 A-D of the Center Point Center at Bowling Green State University Firelands. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. The moment in which Archila confronted Senator Flake in the elevator was decades in the making.  Archila had never told her father she was sexually abused as a child.  On the day of her confrontation with Sen. Flake — with the video going viral — she shared her story with him. Archila, Co-Executive Director of the Center for Popular Democracy, is a national voice for racial and economic justice, immigrant rights and building people power in order to transform our country into one in which we can all live with dignity.  A 39-year old native of Colombia, Archila believes that when “regular” people take action, especially when they take action together, they can change this country. What Are You Doing, Sir?  This is the Future of Our Country! is free, open to the public.  For more information about the program, call 419.372.0617
