Racial Justice and Restorative Justice in a time of Awakening, Repair, & Reimagining with Dr. Fania Davis

Register

The UCSB Restorative Justice Program and MultiCultural Center are excited to welcome Dr. Fania Davis—a leading international voice on racial and restorative justice and a former civil rights attorney—to campus!

Dr. Davis will guide us in reimagining healing and justice within our racialized society, exploring the intersections of racial justice, restorative justice, healing, and indigeneity. At this critical moment of disaster, awakening, and repair, she will invite us to reflect on how we might release social structures rooted in white supremacy and imagine new possibilities for transformation.

Dr. Fania E. Davis is an international leader in racial and restorative justice, longtime activist, civil rights attorney, author, and educator with a PhD in Indigenous Knowledge. She was active in the Civil Rights, Black liberation, women’s, prisoners’, peace, anti-racial violence, economic justice, and anti-apartheid movements. Apprenticing with African healers deepened her commitment to healing justice, leading her to found Restorative Justice for Oakland Youth and co-found the National Association of Community and Restorative Justice. Based in Oakland, she writes and speaks globally on restorative justice, racial justice, truth processes, and indigeneity.
