"Looking into the Mirror of Race: Reflections on Seeing the Present through the Past" presented by Gregory Fried, Professor of Philosophy and Chair of the Philosophy Department, Suffolk University
Monday, November 7th, 12:15-1:30pm
Rosenthal Library President's Conference Room 2 (5th floor)
In this talk, Fried will discuss the Mirror of Race Project, a multi-disciplinary, multi-media undertaking to explore the meaning of race in America. The project focuses on early American photography as a way to take a new look at the history of race in America, and as a way to confront our present by reviewing the past and envisioning the future. Fried will discuss the genesis of the project, its scope, and some of the work that has been done with these images from 150 years in the past.
