Administrative History
The Women of Color Research Cluster at UC Santa Cruz, also called the University of
California Research Cluster for the Study of Women of Color in Conflict and Collaboration,
was founded in 1991 by graduate students and affiliated faculty studying Women of Color on
the UC Santa Cruz campus. According to their mission statement, the cluster was significant
in that it "[departed] from critical perspectives surrounding the category 'women of color,'
[and focused on] the study of the complexities of multiple, dispersed, and conficting
identities." (http://www2.ucsc.edu/woc/mission.html) The cluster was funded in the 1990s by
Professor Angela Y. Davis, UC Presidential Chair, and the Center for Cultural Studies. The
largest ongoing project put on by the Women of Color Research Cluster was the annual Women
of Color Film and Video Festival, which received submissions from filmmakers around the
country and premiered several films before they were shown at national festivals. The
cluster participated in curriculum development for courses in the Women's Studies/Feminist
Studies and History of Consciousness departments on the subject of women of color, which
were co-taught by tenure-track faculty and graduate student cluster members. The cluster
also hosted speakers series, seminars, and other campus-wide events before disbanding in the
2000s. During the 2016-2017 academic year, graduate students from three UC campuses (Santa
Cruz, Davis, and Berkeley) came together in the spirit of the original research cluster as
the Women of Color (WOC) in Collaboration and Conflict Graduate Working Group to collaborate
across disciplines to "co-author and co-edit a journal on the theme of witnessing and
testimony as a decolonial feminist methodology."
