Communicating America’s Racialized Inter- & Intra-Class Struggle

The interaction of class struggle and race is a complex and important issue in contemporary America.

Dr. Armondo Collins, head of Jackson Library Digital Media Commons, will host a community dialog on Wednesday, Nov. 7, 2018.

Using Zora Neal Hurston’s “Barracoon: The Story of the Last 'Black Cargo'” as a starting point, participants will discuss racialized inter- and intra-class struggle in modern America. The conversation will be held in North Spencer Residence Hall Parlor at 6 p.m. This event is a part of the African American and African Diaspora Studies department’s Conversations With the Community program, where faculty and students come together to converse about contemporary issues facing people of African descent. See the AADS website for more information and a full schedule of upcoming events.
