Conservatism: The Ultimate Rebellion with Lily Kate at UT Knoxville, by Network of enlightened Women

Presented by the Leadership Institute and Hosted by the Network of enlightened Women (NeW) The Network of enlightened Women (NeW) at UTK, in collaboration with the Leadership Institute, is proud to invite the University of Tennessee community to an evening of cultural discussion featuring renowned conservative commentator and Gen Z influencer Lily Kate. As a leading voice for a new generation of conservative thinkers, Lily Kate is known for her fearless advocacy of traditional values, faith, and the reclaiming of authentic femininity. In her keynote address, "Conservatism: The Ultimate Rebellion," she challenges the prevailing campus narratives that label progressivism as the only form of activism. Instead, she posits that in today’s institutional landscape, the most radical and rebellious act a young person can take is to embrace conservative principles, family values, and intellectual independence. Why Attend? A New Perspective: Hear firsthand how Lily Kate is a leading conservative voice, and why she believes the "counter-culture" has shifted to the right. Cultural Clarity: Explore themes of "radical femininity" versus modern feminism and learn how to navigate the cultural pressures facing students today. Live Q&A: This isn’t just a lecture. Following the speech, attendees are invited to participate in a live Question and Answer session to engage directly with Lily Kate on the topics that matter most to the UTK community. Networking: Connect with members of NeW, an organization for conservative and independent women on campus, and learn about the resources offered by the Leadership Institute.
