Staff on Race Presents: Race at The New School with Tim Wise and Thelma Armstrong is a discussion and panel that excavates and puts into context the history of racially charged events affecting staff, students, and faculty here at The New School. Presented by the committee for Staff on Race, and in conjunction with 400 Years of Inequality and The New School Archives and Libraries, this program includes a reveal of the Race at The New School Timeline, an evocation of the university as a space for healing, and a critical conversation with heralded authorities on race in America moderated by New School faculty and African-American Studies scholar, Tracyann Williams. The program will conclude with a poignant dance performance of the
Cotton Series, choreographed by New School alumna, Havanna Fisher.
