Racecraft. Castecraft. A Transnational Weapon to Criminalize and Dehumanize African American, Dalit, and Romani People

Wednesday, April 24, 2019
6:30 pm
- 8:30 pm EDT
Starr Auditorium, Belfer Building, HKS
in Events

For centuries, racist or casteist ideologies have overlapped in the oppression of African Americans, Dalits, Romani people, and others. The racecraft of inferiority continues to be a powerful ideological weapon that ruling elites and dominant majorities have been using—intentionally and unintentionally, overtly or covertly—against historically oppressed groups. Join us for a panel discussion featuring:

  • Cornel West – Professor of the Practice of Public Philosophy at Harvard University
  • Suraj Yengde – Postdoctoral fellow at the Initiative for Institutional Anti-racism and Accountability, Shorenstein Center on Media
  • Magda Matache – Instructor at the Harvard FXB Center for Health and Human Rights and the Director of the Roma Program at Harvard
  • Khalil Gibran Muhammad (moderator) – Professor of History, Race and Public Policy at Harvard Kennedy School
