Heritage & Identity Observances

Throughout the year, certain identities and backgrounds are amplified and celebrated. We recognize that celebrating entire groups of people during a single day, week, or month may feel like an oversimplification. People with systemically marginalized identities live and thrive every day. We offer this information to amplify the KU community's understanding of the intersectional nature of cultures, histories, scholarship, and identities, while also providing additional context and learning opportunities throughout the year.
