Metaracism: How Systemic Racism Devastates Black Lives – And How We Break Free

May 9 @ 4:00 pm-5:30 pm

Join Professor Tricia Rose who will be in conversation about her new book published by Basic Books, “Metaracism” with Professors Jasmine Hill, Ananya Roy, Marques Vestal, and moderated by Professor Robin D.G. Kelley.

In plain language, Tricia Rose dynamically retells the stories of Trayvon Martin, Kelley Williams-Bolar and Michael Brown, leading readers step-by-step through an analysis that reveals consistent, nation-wide patterns of containment, extraction and punishment of Black people.

Co-sponsored by the UCLA Luskin Institute on Inequality and Democracy.
