Lecture by Dr. Evelyn Hu-DeHart, Professor of History and Ethnic Studies and Director of the Center for the Study of Race and Ethnicity in America (CSREA) at Brown University
Professor Ben Cushing will invite participants into a process of critiquing the atomized self—the product of multiple racialist, gendered, classed, and human/non-human fissures. How do we decolonize the self, the land, and the relationships between indigenous and non-indigenous communities? How do we build human and inter-species communities grounded in healing and reciprocity?
