Students flocked to Wilder Hall Wednesday evening to participate in Wilder Night, a conglomerate event comprised of numerous activities spread throughout the building’s three floors. Several of these activities were aimed at promoting sexual health, including free STI and HIV testing and interactive consent workshops. Among the many events, Oberlin Students United for Reproductive Freedom held a drive for menstrual products to donate to women’s and homeless shelters, where sanitary products are much needed and seldom donated. SURF will continue the drive in Mudd Library this week. Students also wrote letters to currently incarcerated LGBTQ individuals through the organization Black & Pink, and called political representatives in support of progressive causes. Student volunteers also gave free haircuts for several hours as part of the Resource Conservation Team’s Hair Recycling event, which will donate the hair to help clean up oil spills. Less activism-oriented activities ranged from sampling essential oils and making lotions to participating in board games and tarot card readings.

Undocumented trans activists Ola Osaze (left), Nigerian-born, and Jennicet Gutiérrez, who came to the U.S. from Mexico in her teens, interview one another in front of an audience at My Name is My Own, an event hosted by the Multicultural Resource Center in Dye Lecture Hall Thursday night. My Name is My Own’s primary mission is to provide institutional support to Oberlin communities that identify as queer and of color in the broadest senses of those words. Discussion topics ranged from political promises by current and past administrations in the face of increasing violence against Black, brown, trans and immigrant bodies to the importance of self love and joy in social and political climates that provide little of either to minority communities across the board.

From left to right, College senior Davíd Zager and College junior Deron Essex receive instruction in Capoeira Angola from Mestre Jurandir of the International Capoeira Angola Foundation. Capoeira is a martial art and dance form developed by Angolans in Brazil in the 16th century. The art form is practiced in countries all over the world, and made its way to the U.S. in the late 20th century.  Several students took part in the trip to Brazil over Winter Term, led by Associate Professor of Theater and Africana Studies Justin Emeka, OC ’95. Students spent 20 days in the cities of Belo Horizonte and Salvador, working with three different Capoeira groups and participating in a facilitated discussion on how the art can be used to face racial divides and inequality in the U.S.
