September 26, Wednesday, 7 pm
How to Be Less Stupid About Race, with author Crystal Fleming. This young writer and sociologist has penned a work of social critique, humorous personal anecdotes, and analysis of the latest interdisciplinary scholarship on racism. She takes on the so-called “national conversation on race” and what she calls “racial stupidity in the Obama era.” She recounts how she came to understand the reality of Barack Obama as a war criminal, and goes on to slam Trump’s open white supremacy combined with vehement denials of racism. The book draws on critical race theory, as well as her own experiences as a queer Black millennial professor and researcher.
Crystal Fleming is Associate Professor of Sociology and Africana Studies at State University of New York, Stony Brook, and is a contributing writer for The Root, Black Agenda Report, Vox, and Everyday Feminism. She’s also the author of Resurrecting Slavery: Racial Legacies and White Supremacy in France.
