Come join Women and Gender Studies in our exploration of how fatness is discussed and treated in society. We will address fat stigma, fat shaming, thin privilege, the fat acceptance movement, and ways of practicing fat positivity. All students, faculty, and staff are welcome to attend. Hope to see you there!
