Welcome to the Women’s Justice Roundtable community!
The Office of College Events and Cultural Planning held its Inaugural Women’s History Month observance at Bunker Hill Community College in May, 2022. The Women’s Justice Roundtable (WJR) at BHCC – offered 4 times annually – provides an intentional, safe, and reflective space for women and men, students, staff, faculty, and community partners to gather, showcase, and collaborate on their efforts to create gender equality in their neighborhoods, workplaces, and social networks. Whatever the scale, the WJR supports all initiatives - from children and youth to elders – that focus on protecting girls’ and women’s human rights. Dr. Robin Chandler, BHCC’s Inaugural Artist-Scholar in Residence, hosts the roundtable four times a year, the second will be held on October 26. Women (and men) from the BHCC community, College partners and the public are invited. The presenter for October 2022 will be Rhonda Anderson (Iñupiaq -Athabaskan), Western Mass Commission on Indian Affairs and Co-director of Ohketeau Cultural Center. Rhonda will share her thoughts on critical issues that currently confront women and girls in the Native community in the U.S.
The roundtable will include a 5-minute presentation by Chandler on progress in global women’s movements, a 30/45 - minute presentation by Anderson, including a short video, then full discussion from the roundtable of attendees. Please join the growing WJR community to share what you are doing to address gender inequality. Bring your stories, reports, challenges you are facing, and updates on your social justice efforts on behalf of women and girls.
Q&A to follow the discussion.

About the Author: Deborah Schwartz’s latest poetry collection, Wind of the House, Voice of the Stream, of the Dream That you Dream, While We Turn You Around, “interweaves the most pressing issues of the day—immigration, run-amok capitalism, and the climate cliff on which we live” (Ellen Dore Watson, author of Pray Me Stay Eager) while begging “questions about the role of witness in the face of pervasive violence, interrogating white savior syndrome, white guilt, and cultural and economic appropriation.” (Kelly Fordon, author of I Have the Answer.) Her 2019 poetry collection, A Girl Could Disappear Like This, “offers a generous semi-surrealist’ commentary on a host of grand topics as well as a carefully curated display of personal ones. Bold, funny and intensely female, Schwartz navigates oceans, skies, and bodies with curiosity and tenderness.” (Diane Wald, author of The Warhol Pillows.) The collection won finalists with Carolina Wren Press, Elixir Press, and Inlandia Press, and was highlighted at Brilliant Light Publishing as one of the recommended poetry books of 2019.
She teaches in the English Department at Bunker Hill Community College and lives with her family (wife and dog) in East Boston, Massachusetts. Kin to nieces, nephews, young ones, in and outlaws, siblings, people, students, teachers, friends, stones, ocean and sky-fronts, living and dead parents and other ancestors (alava shalom), life brings her much quiet, tons of noise, space, and words.
