Over ten years of building community in the movement for Ethnic Studies

Hello,
We know that many members of our community are feeling a sense of fear and even despair at what the future holds with the shift in administration. It is critical that we support one another and not lose focus of the work at hand to dismantle the systems that have been in place regardless of the current political administration, and that our ancestors have fought and resisted for generations before us. As part of the national Ethnic Studies collective, XITO will continue the critical on-the-ground organizing we’ve been engaged in for years and applying the lessons learned from the past.

Come to XITO’s 10th Annual Winter Institute!

SEATTLE, WA | FEB 14–16, 2025

XITO has been building community and scaling up the Ethnic Studies movement for over a decade, and we encourage you to join us on that front! Our 10th Annual Winter Institute will be held in Seattle on Feb. 14-16, 2025 and is an opportunity to strengthen our collective, build power in our organizing and ensure our youth are receiving a decolonial and liberatory education.
