Description
Best-selling author, Dr. Ibram X. Kendi, is the keynote speaker for the Inaugural Cedric Herring Symposium. As a scholar on the history of racism in America, Dr. Kendi has reoriented the conversation about racism by pointing us towards liberating new ways of thinking about ourselves and each other. He will address historical and contemporary racism and racial structures within and beyond the university setting. Through the lens of antiracism, he will offer a rich examination of how power creates systems of privilege and exclusion, while also providing tools that universities and community-based organizations can use to eradicate these systems.
Dr. Kendi will be available to sign his latest book, How to be an Antiracist, immediately after his talk.
Persons wishing to hear his talk do not have to attend the symposium.
