SUMMARY:2024 Henry Cohen Lecture Series: Wake Up America
DESCRIPTION:In 1968\, civil rights activist Fannie Lou Hamer called for Americans to “wake up” if they wanted to “make democracy a reality.” Today\, as Black communities continue to face challenges built on centuries of discrimination\, Hamer’s plea is increasingly urgent. \nJoin us for a panel discussion of Dr. Keisha N. Blain’s new book\, Wake Up America: Black Women on the Future of Democracy\, and the steps we can take to build a truly inclusive democracy. Dr. Blain’s exhilarating anthology of original essays brings together the voices of major progressive Black women politicians\, grassroots activists\, and intellectuals to offer critical insights on how we can create a more equitable political future. \nSpeakers include: \n\n\n\nHistorian and author Dr. Keisha N. Blain;\nInstitute Senior Fellow Sen. Nina Turner;\nPresident and CEO of Higher Heights for America Glynda C. Carr; and\nAssociate Professor of Political Science at Fordham University Dr. Christina Greer.\n\nRegister Now\n  \n\n\nPresented by the Institute on Race\, Power and Political Economy in partnership with the Milano School of Policy\, Management\, and Environment\, the 2024 Henry Cohen Lecture Series\, “Visions of a Post-Neoliberal Future\,” brings leading thinkers\, changemakers\, policymakers\, journalists\, and activists to The New School to share their perspectives on building an inclusive political economy.
