Скачать или смотреть The Secret History Of Academic Disciplines (Hess 2021-22)

Robert. L Hess week 10/25/21-10/29/21
Hess Scholar-in-Residence Lisa Lowe

Many of the disciplines and departments of our modern university were formed and developed in the 19th century, at the same time that European countries were colonizing various parts of the world. Panelists will discuss how colonialism has shaped various academic disciplines, and how scholars today are attempting to fundamentally decolonize and transform age-old concepts and categories that have historically been foundational to their disciplinary methodologies. A panel discussion with Assistant Professor Yana Kuchirko (Psychology, Brooklyn College), Professor Lisa Lowe, Assistant Professor Rhea Rahman (Anthropology, Brooklyn College), Assistant Professor Christopher Richards (Art, Brooklyn College), and Professor Sophia Suarez (Biology, Brooklyn College). Moderated by Associate Professor Lauren Mancia (History, Brooklyn College).
