Decolonise the University Reading Group

- Export as iCalendar
Location: H5.42

Please join us for a Decolonise the University Reading Group which is taking place in advance of our Town Hall.

We'll be reading the introduction and two chapters of Decolonising the University ("Rhodes Must Fall: Oxford and Movements for Change"by Dalia Gebrial and "Black/Academia" by Robbie Shilliam) as well as a short excerpt from Cinzia Arruzza, Tithi Bhattacharya, and Nancy Fraser's "Notes For a Feminist Manifesto." We hope that these readings can open up a larger conversation on the kinds of changes we'd like to see happen in our curriculum, our department, and our university. The readings are attached here. Given recent events, we would also very much welcome readings or discussions on fighting sexism, racism, anti-semitism, transphobia, and homophobia on campus. The readings are provided in the above links!
