Come together to discuss the first selection in this year’s Antiracist Book Club.
Join Dr. Claire Oberon Garcia, acting provost and dean of the faculty, and Barry Fagin, senior associate dean of the faculty at the U.S. Air Force Academy, for a discussion of differing views and interpretations of Critical Race Theory on Monday, Nov. 8, at 7 p.m. in Cornerstone Screening Room (Cornerstone 131) and via Zoom. Join virtually by registering here. Note: Fagin’s views are his own and not necessarily those of the U. S. Air Force Academy.
The ABC continues in the next semester with both written and audio versions of Tarana Burke and Brene Brown’s bestseller, “You are Your Best Thing: Vulnerability, Shame, Resilience, and the Black Experience;” one of the essayists, Austin Channing Brown, will be our Block 5 First Mondays speaker. “Ebony & Ivy: Race, Slavery, and the Troubled History of America’s Universities” by Craig Wilder is the final book of this academic year. These timely texts were selected to get us thinking about antiracism from multiple angles. Each book will be accompanied by study guides, talks, and other resources.
Hope to see you Monday!
