The Center for African American Studies at Princeton University presents the 2014-2015 "Conversation Series" with Dr. Cornel West, Dr. Imani Perry, and Dr. Eddie S. Glaude Jr.
The three scholars discuss the current state of black America and draw from past thinkers to speculate on a progressive future. Central to the conversation are the topics of jobs and unemployment, mass incarceration and the paucity of courageous, prophetic black voices in the public debate. The discussion will explore the courage of communities, and the courage of people, as a means to grapple with the question: “What do we need to do now in the face of a crisis?”
The Center for African American Studies “Conversation Series” demonstrates the center’s commitment to modeling a form of engagement that enriches public discussion on a range of topics including: politics, music, literature and the arts. The series brings together public figures, from the same or different fields, to share perspectives on their work and insights into our society.
