SUMMARY:Public Lecture by Dr. Rinaldo Walcott: The Responsibility of the Intellectual in a Time of Fascist Genocide Delivered
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Rinaldo Walcott is Professor and Chair of Africana and American Studies and holder of the Carl V. Granger Chair at the University at Buffalo. An interdisciplinary Black Studies scholar, writer, and critic, his work engages Black diaspora cultural studies, gender and sexuality, as well as critical questions of nation, multiculturalism, and freedom. He is the author and editor of numerous influential works, including The Long Emancipation and On Property, and is a widely recognized public commentator on Black cultural life.\n\nIn this keynote, Dr. Walcott reflects on the role of the university in shaping and responding to contemporary crises. Considering the intellectual and scholar as a knowledge producer constrained by institutional structures and systems of reward, he argues that this historical moment calls for an ethical willingness to take risks. Central to his argument is the need to rethink and remake the university as an ethical pillar of social life.\nEvent Details\nDate: Thursday, May 7\nTime: 6:00 PM (ET) / 7:00 PM (ADT)\nDuration: 45 minutes + Q&A\nFormat: Online via Zoom\nLink: Webinar Registration – Zoom\n
