Yet, we still struggle with terminology that honors Latinx\/a\/o students\u2019 identities, let alone their intersections with systems of oppression. This presentation will engage in a dialogue about the importance of Latinx\/a\/o\/* students\u2019 identities and labels that have been (mis)used, (mis)interpreted, and have not been fully examined. The goal is to illuminate how the politics of naming social identities can perpetuate structures of power, and work toward transforming higher education through critical naming processes. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/events\/818613298768560\/?__cft__[0]=AZXBdZcjL9PfPCzGyr1QsZjWiLLUdlxtH_tQ7e7fkCiGISToaBtuLM3GFi3nMc_nmSQHKC-oLLujxWFlyGljtXin2L6LXLISAezyF73YF6ARtaZteQHxnzLv2Dk3fdbhZvjvXr_NRID462d9U8YGUkFx&amp;__tn__=-UK-R\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">facebook.com\/events\/818613298768560<\/a><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\" \/>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Publisher&#8217;s Note: Do you have a suggestion for a topic and\/or guest for 3 Questions With&#8230;?
