About

Lindsay Littrell came to the Midwest and the Indiana University School of Social Work seven years ago, a macro social worker and singer/songwriter, with West Coast practice experience, East Coast education, and Southern raisin’. A social work educator with roots in the labor movement, policy and organizing, she is driven by her passion for justice and the building of beloved community. In addition to the honor of educating as a “practice of freedom,” Lindsay keeps her ear to the ground and her feet on the pavement, bringing students along as often as possible, engaging struggles for peace, justice and reconciliation here in our back yard and across the world. Ms. Littrell has recently served as the Deputy Director for the South North Cohesion Project’s Gender-Based Violence Programme, working with a team of researchers and practitioners here in Indiana, USA and across South Africa.
