Hi,
If you know activists or academics that would be interested in 
teaching/advocating/researching full-time about race, gender,
colonization, and environmental policies as they affect social
justice and public health, please forward the job advertisement below
to them. We would also be grateful if you would forward this 
advertisement to any graduate programs in the third world where there
might be advanced graduate students who would be interested in
teaching in the United States on these topics. We will consider
activists who do not have a Ph.D. if they have an outstanding record
of NGO or other advocacy or policy work.

Although our deadline is October 1 this year, we will consider
applications after that date but we expect to complete the hiring by 
the end of October.

Please contact me if you have any questions or need furhter informaiton.
Thank you.
