"The DSA believes that it is through genuine engagement with community stakeholders and advocates, and leveraging the concerns of faculty, students, and staff that we can respond to the complex challenges of being a socially accountable organization. This year we have focused on developing authentic relationships and promoting and supporting individual and collective learning. Our team is in constant search of better practices and frameworks for action, especially those informed by the analysis and voices of marginalized people. We have been building capacity in anti-racism and anti-oppression frameworks that help us create a common language and make power dynamics within our organization visible."
