Faculty working in the field of Black Studies will speak briefly about methodologies, questions, and materials that we foreground in our current and forthcoming research.
We hope to envision together future research and pose critical questions for trajectories. We’ll have an opportunity ascertain and emphasize common values as well as constructively divergent questions in this interdisciplinary field.
Professor Vilna Bashi Treitler, the Chair of the Department of Black Studies, will present the Department’s new vision statement as we highlight work by Department faculty and affiliates.
Professor Diane Fujino, Director of the Center for Black Studies Research, will describe the CBSR’s work this year including the eponymous “Future of Black Studies” Distinguished Guest series.
Discussants include Professors Ingrid Banks, Felice Blake, Michaela Diaz Sanchez, Terence Keel, George Lipsitz, Zakiya Luna, Christopher McAuley, Jeffrey Stewart, and Roberto Strongman.
We hope you’ll join us, share thoughts, and encourage students to participate in what promises to be a vibrant conversation.
