A Global Reckoning: Colonialism and the Quest for Justice

From: 12:15 PM to 01:15 PM

Join us for the inaugural Bhisé Global Understanding Project speaker series as we are joined by Caroline Elkins, a professor at Harvard University and the Pulitzer-Prize winning author of Imperial Reckoning: The Untold Story of Britain’s Gulag in Kenya.

Together, alongside Joanne Corbin, PhD, dean of the School of Social Work, they will take us on a journey exploring the world of colonialism. How did we get to where we are in the world based on colonialism? What is the relationship between liberalism and racial capitalism? How does it affect the economy and law? We invite you to join in to further discuss how we as scholars, in a world of global reckoning, utilize our academic work as it collides with the real world.

A complimentary light lunch will be served at 11:45 a.m. for all registered attendees. This event is open to the public and will be offered in a hybrid format. All students are strongly encouraged to attend this event in person.

This event is sponsored by the Bhisé Global Understanding Project.
