       SPEaK, Students Promoting Empowerment and Knowledge, has been speaking truth to power since 1998. Founded by folks with roots in the 1996 hunger strike and struggle that brought Latino Studies and Asian American Studies programs to Columbia, SPEaK believes that as students, we should be active in shaping our education. In the last four years, we have fought for student input in decisionmaking processes and greater autonomy for Ethnic Studies and Women's and Gender Studies programs, created extracurricular spaces for dialogue about race, class, gender, and sexuality including an underground student-run Native American Studies program, and curated public art to express our visions of the world and our interpretations of the historical and existing injustices around us, among other things. Feel free to send questions, ideas, feedback or information to our core committee at speak@columbia.edu.
