2018 Stand Up Award Ceremony

Rock Ethics Colloquia Series - Martin Pietrucha - “The Ethical Dimensions of Mobility Versus Access in Transportation”

Sawyer Seminar Series: Junaid Rana - “Anthropology and the Riddle of White Supremacy”

This talk explores how social science disciplines such as anthropology have addressed the concepts of racism and white supremacy. Drawing on the exchange published as A Rap on Race between anthropologist Margaret Mead and writer James Baldwin that pitted them between racial liberalism and a critique of white supremacy, I focus on how their discussion highlighted religion and moral belief as integral concepts related to racism. In the Mead and Baldwin conversation, the connection of Christianity to white supremacy reveals a complex conjuring of Islam and Muslims that I describe as racecraft, and that have implications for how we continue to theorize and study white supremacy and racism.
