The Sawyer Seminar Series continues with Devon Carbado, who examines the intersectional nature of oppression and the relationship between the attack on academic freedom, Black studies and other critical studies, and the creation and maintenance of social inequalities and oppression in society.
Devon Carbado is the Elihu Root Professor of Law at NYU Law School.
The Center for the Study of Race, Ethnicity & Equity is a co-sponsor of The Sawyer Seminar Series, convened by Department of African and African American Studies and the Center for the Humanities.
