November 30 - December 2, 2007
The conference will include a film festival: The objective of the conference will be to re-think race and racism from a structural perspective while also acting on the insight that understanding the operations of race and ethnicity does not tell us how we can effectively communicate that understanding. A critical analysis is not a communications strategy. Accordingly, in addition to elaborating the analytical framework of "structural racism," the roughly 500 conference participants will explore ways of "talking about race" that facilitate bridge-building and coalition formation across racial, ethnic and even ideological differences. The conference will also include a film festival, an acknowledgement that we must bring a range of tools to bear on the challenge of racial analysis and communications.
