Ideas and practices that create inequality based on racial categories were invented, and are perpetuated, by white people. Even after the many gains of the civil-rights movement, the United States remains a white-supremacist society in material and ideological terms, and in such a society white people have unearned privileges. In this hour-long program, Robert Jensen will discuss the history and contemporary reality of race in the United States and suggest that we have to go beyond the rhetoric of multiculturalism and diversity if we want to address the country\u2019s racial problems in a meaningful way.<\/pee>[\/et_pb_code][et_pb_code admin_label=&#8221;Code &#8211; hr&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<style><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->hr.divider { <!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->    border: 0;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->    height: 0;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->    border-top: 1px solid rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1);<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->    border-bottom: 1px solid rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.3);<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->    margin-top: 20px;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->    margin-bottom: 20px;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->}<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><\/style>\n<p><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><\/p>\n<hr class=\"divider\">[\/et_pb_code][et_pb_code admin_label=&#8221;Code &#8211; Racism 101&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"line-height:1.7em;\">Racism 101<\/h3>\n<p><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"line-height:1.7em;\"><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  <a href=\"\/2023\/conference\/speakers\/\" style=\"color:#083654;\">Presenter To be determined<\/a><!\u2013- [et_pb_br_holder] -\u2013><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  11:50 a.m.<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><\/h4>\n<p><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><pee><\/pee>[\/et_pb_code][et_pb_code admin_label=&#8221;Code &#8211; hr&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<style><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->hr.divider { <!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->    border: 0;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->    height: 0;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->    border-top: 1px solid rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1);<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->    border-bottom: 1px solid rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.3);<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->    margin-top: 20px;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->    margin-bottom: 20px;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->}<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><\/style>\n<p><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><\/p>\n<hr class=\"divider\">[\/et_pb_code][et_pb_code admin_label=&#8221;Code &#8211; Intersection of Race &#038; Gender in our Society&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"line-height:1.7em;\">Intersection of Race &#038; Gender in our Society<\/h3>\n<p><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"line-height:1.7em;\"><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  <a href=\"\/2023\/conference\/speakers\/\" style=\"color:#083654;\">Presenter To be determined<\/a><!\u2013- [et_pb_br_holder] -\u2013><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  1:30 p.m.<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><\/h4>\n<p><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><pee><\/pee>[\/et_pb_code][et_pb_code admin_label=&#8221;Code &#8211; hr&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<style><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->hr.divider { <!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->    border: 0;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->    height: 0;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->    border-top: 1px solid rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1);<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->    border-bottom: 1px solid rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.3);<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->    margin-top: 20px;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->    margin-bottom: 20px;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->}<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><\/style>\n<p><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><\/p>\n<hr class=\"divider\">[\/et_pb_code][et_pb_code admin_label=&#8221;Code &#8211; Facilitating Critical Conversations on Race, Equity, and Justice&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"line-height:1.7em;\">Facilitating Critical Conversations on Race, Equity, and Justice<\/h3>\n<p><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"line-height:1.7em;\"><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  <a href=\"\/2023\/conference\/speakers\/\" style=\"color:#083654;\">Presenter To be determined<\/a><!\u2013- [et_pb_br_holder] -\u2013><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  Time To be determined<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><\/h4>\n<p><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><pee>To achieve equitable change it is crucial to understand the fundamental issues perpetuating the inequality facing society.
