College of Engineering and the President’s Commission on the Status of Women Presents:
Creating Anti-Racist Communities
In today’s society what does it take to create a just community? How can we break through the deeply ingrained layers of structural racism to create an equal America?
This is one of the many topics that Dr. Tricia Rose, internationally acclaimed scholar, public speaker, and award winning author attempts to tackle in our political landscape.
Dr. Rose is the Chancellor’s Professor of Africana Studies, Associate Dean of the Faculty for Special Initiatives, and Director of the Center for the Study of Race and Ethnicity in America at Brown University. She engages in conversation on a wide range of issues relating to race in America, mass media, structural inequality, popular cultural, gender and sexuality and art and social justice and has been featured on PBS, MSNBC, CNN, NPR and other national and local media outlets.
