09/17 Jeremy McInerney (Penn) "Eos: Africana Receptions of Ancient Greece and Rome"

 

Thursday, September 17, 4:30 - 6:00 pm (EST)

Department of Classical Studies, Colloqium

 

In July the Penn Classics department held an online meeting in conjunction with the EOS/Africana reception reading group. That workshop focused on Franz Fanon’s The Wretched of the Earth and Margot Hendrick’s “Coloring the Past, Rewriting Our Future: RaceB4Race” (2019). A nationwide workshop is scheduled for Friday, October 16th. On September 17 we will hold a second iteration of the Penn workshop, once again exploring strategies for addressing systemic racism in the field of Classical Studies and in our classrooms.
