Humanities scholarship can provide essential perspectives on our country's ongoing struggle with racial inequality and systemic injustice. Building on our first Laptop Lecture series about the COVID-19 pandemic in the spring, this series of "one-minute" lectures--recorded by faculty in social isolation--show how faculty research can illuminate the historical, cultural, and systemic challenges surrounding racial identity.
Recorded by faculty in social isolation, these two-minute talks connect ongoing humanities research to contemporary social challenges. While we adjust to new contexts for teaching, thinking, and writing, Laptop Lectures offer perspective on human experience and the issues of our day.
