The Black Europe Symposium brings together experts in the field for interdisciplinary discussion around the notion of formations of Blackness broadly defined in Europe and the diaspora. Scholars will showcase their cutting-edge research on a wide range of topics, including identity and subjectivity formations in migrant workers, politics of care, the formation of Blackness in the Balkans, and more. 

They have an exciting day planned with expert presentations, light food/refreshments, and plenty of engaging discussion, and they would love to see you and a room filled with other interested guests!
