Violet Butler Room, Department of Social Policy and Intervention

Dr Sharrelle Barber, Drexel University (Speaker)

Dr Ben Chrisinger (Convenor)

Please note that Dr Sharrelle Barber will be joining us remotely for this lecture.

The COVID-19 pandemic has magnified striking racial inequities in health in the United States and around the World and has been a sobering reminder that racism, in all of its forms, is deadly. This seminar will discuss Critical Race Theory as a useful framework for understanding racial inequities in COVID-19 and reflect on actions needed to dismantle racism and other systems of oppression.

Due to Covid safety protocols, only DSPI students, staff, and affiliates will have card access to Barnett House.

Registration is required.
