Overview

Hope isn't just for the privileged—it's what has always carried women forward when there was no road, no permission, no reason to believe things could change. It is not a luxury of the comfortable. It is the oxygen of the resistant.

What does it take to hope when the world keeps telling you to brace for impact?

Feminist anthropologist Michelle Titus invites women to explore hope not as soft optimism or naive denial, but as a radical act of rebellion—one that marginalized women have always known is necessary for survival.

We will explore how hope lives in the mouth of the woman who speaks up, in the hands of the woman who builds something new from rubble, and in the stubborn, glorious refusal to let others define what's possible.

Let's discuss the difference between hope as denial and hope as defiance.
