The Office for Diversity and Inclusion is pleased to announce an in-person talk by Dr. Eduardo Bonilla-Silva, the James B. Duke Distinguished Professor of sociology at Duke University. He is the author of Racism without Racists: Color-Blind Racism and the Persistence of Racial Inequality in the United States (2003), an influential book that changed discussion on prejudice within academia and has also served as a public intellectual who helps non-academic audiences think about the pervasiveness of racism in the United States.
Dr. Bonilla-Silva will discuss racism in the United States, as well as efforts to make universities multicultural and democratic for real. This in-person talk will be held on Tuesday, May 9, from 4:30 to 6 p.m. at Capital Community College’s Centinel Hill Hall Auditorium (950 Main Street, Hartford). Please RSVP today.
