Race and Representation: A Roundtable with Jacob Dlamini, Caryl Phillips, and Manisha Sinha
The Institute for Holocaust, Genocide and Memory Studies’ (IHGMS) 2020-21 Five College Working Group on Race and Representations is hosting a webinar event, “Race and Representation: A Roundtable with Jacob Dlamini, Caryl Phillips, and Manisha Sinha,” on Saturday, May 8, at 2 p.m.
How is race connected to representation, whether as a matter of social structure or the ways in which different races are imaged in public discourse? For the past year an interdisciplinary group of scholars hosted by the IHGMS, and co-directed by Whitney Battle-Baptiste and Stephen Clingman.has been engaged in exploring these questions. Now they host three distinguished speakers whose work is centrally involved with these issues; Jacob Dlamini, Caryl Phillips and Manisha Sinha.
