Race and Policing in America: A CLAS Theme Year Event

October 16, 2020
10:00 AM – 11:30 AM
Zoom - see link for meeting URL

This webinar is part of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences-sponsored Theme Year series, called "Pursuing Racial Justice at the University of Iowa." In this collaborative 2020-21 series, faculty, students, and staff are exploring—through cross-disciplinary and intersectional lenses—how the UI's history as a predominantly white institution has shaped:

  • The knowledge we produce and convey to students, the public, and the academy;
  • The ways our community members interact with one another; and
  • The relationship of the university to Iowa City and the state of Iowa.

The goal of each event is to invite members of CLAS, the UI, and the broader community to engage with the issues, reflect upon what they have learned, and consider personal and institutional actions we might take in response.
