Enjoy and be safe |
WEEK 9
WEEK 12--NOTE THE LOCATION HAS CHANGED TO MOAKLEY!!!!! Today we will meet in the MOAKLEY Auditorium for the Bartlett Lecture: The Bartlett Lecture for Spring 2024 will be given by Dr. Erec Smith, Associate Professor of Rhetoric at York College of Pennsylvania. His talk, “Anti-Racist Education is Anti-Everything Except Racism,” will be Tuesday, March 12th, 12:15-1:45, in the Moakley Auditorium. Professor Smith’s work focuses on the rhetorics of anti‐racist activism, theory, and pedagogy, as well as the role of rhetoric in a free, pluralistic, and civil society. He has also published on rhetoric in Buddhist philosophy. Professor Smith is a co‐founder of Free Black Thought, a nonprofit dedicated to highlighting viewpoint diversity within the black communities. Free Black Thought includes a compendium of black artists, writers, academics, and public intellectuals not discussed in mainstream media. The organization also has a Journal of Free Black Thought, that publishes anything–from poetry to scholarly work—that discusses or displays a variety of viewpoints within the black diaspora. Professor Smith is the author of A Critique of Anti‐Racism in Rhetoric and Composition: The Semblance of Empowerment (2020), a book in which he scrutinizes contemporary modes of anti‐racism in his field. The book was conceived after Smith’s observations of his field led him to conclude that anti‐racist initiatives did more to disempower students and faculty than empower them. There will be a reception following the talk. |
