Equality Labs and the National Academic Coalition for Caste Equity (NACCE) are very excited to announce the first national conference on caste in higher education. This conference features renowned and leading student activists, academics, community organizers, union members, higher education staff and administrators, and civil rights leaders on building caste equity across colleges, universities, and other higher education settings.

As the national civil rights movement for caste protections grows, this conference is a resource for college and university personnel to increase knowledge of caste, and gain resources on how to support caste oppressed students, staff, and faculty across higher education.

A keynote conversation between Dr. Cornel West and Thenmozhi Soundararajan will take place as part of this conference.
