Description:

In response to recent events both at NU and beyond, this two-part event series aims to provide a forum for communal, rigorous reflection on the relationship between concrete political responsibilities and our (professional, social) role and work as academics. Topics will include the function of research and teaching as well as the university’s place in a larger context of antiracist movements. (Organized by Jonas Rosenbrück, CLS Postdoc)
