Important Update: Final Steps to join Resistance Summer School
Filling out the interest form was just the first step — here's how to officially enroll in Race, Media and International Affairs 101, taught by Karen Attiah. Deadline is May 10th!
First — thank you all so much much for your excitement, energy, and support for Resistance Summer School and or my first course offering, Race, Media and International Affairs 101!
It’s been incredible to see how many of you are ready to think critically about race, media, and international affairs with me this summer, and to support one another while doing so.
I wanted to send a quick reminder:
👉🏾 Filling out the interest form was not the same as official enrollment.
To officially secure your spot in the course, you must either:
✅ Complete your payment, or
✅ Submit a scholarship request by emailing assistant@resistancesummerschool.com with the subject line "Scholarship Request" by May 10.
⚡️ IMPORTANT:
Simply indicating scholarship interest on the Interest Form was not enough.
Only those who have emailed a scholarship request to assistant@resistancesummerschool.com will be considered for scholarship enrollment.
🚨 Enrollment is nearly full, and I will be capping enrollment at 500 students.
I REPEAT: I WILL CAP ENROLLMENT AT 500.
Once we close, I will not be able to add additional students —
so if you’ve been meaning to join, now is the time.
Again, thank you to all who filled out the interest form —
but only students who have completed payment or submitted a full scholarship request are officially enrolled.

Frequently Asked Questions:
But I already paid! Am I enrolled?
✅ Yes!
If you’ve completed your payment and received a confirmation email from Stripe — you’re all set. No further action is needed.
You’ll be receiving a welcome email from me very soon with next steps.
Reminder:
You will first receive a payment confirmation from Stripe.
Shortly after, you’ll receive a separate email from me with more information about the course and what to expect.
I signed the interest form and indicated I need a scholarship. Am I enrolled?
🛑 Not yet.
Simply filling out the interest form is not considered a formal scholarship request.
👉🏾 To be considered for a scholarship, you must email assistant@resistancesummerschool.com with the subject line "Scholarship Request" by May 10.
If you have done that — great!
You’re on the scholarship request list.
We will be notifying selected scholarship recipients later in May, after enrollment officially closes.
More Questions? There’s an FAQ for that.
If you haven’t enrolled yet — this is your window to join our first ever cohort.

In solidarity,
