The new work Teaching and Confronting Racial Neoliberalism in Higher Education: Autoethnographic Explorations of the Race Studies Classroom by Michelle D. Byng, Vaso Thomas, Donna-Marie Peters, Adriana Leela Bohm, and Mary Stricker shines a light on important challenges faced and lessons learned teaching students about race while existing in our larger racial milieu. Four of the five authors of this work are current or former Temple instructors, providing us with a unique lens on this issue as it manifests at our own university. The third of our three sessions will include a panel discussion with the authors. 

Facilitator: Jeff Rients, Associate Director, CAT
