The speakers on our panel will reflect comparatively and intersectionally about the frameworks we need now to think and act against racism. The speakers will offer brief 10-minute reflections on one to up to three terms they believe are crucial for talking about racism now. Which keywords and questions do they think are indispensable to an analysis of our current moment? Following their individual presentations, they will engage each other--pick up threads, common questions, differences, unexpected insights--before opening up the discussion to the audience.
