Black Leftists discuss road map for change
Prof. Fernandez along with Dr. Maulana Karenga, professor and chairman of the Dept. of Africana Studies at the Calif. State University-Long Beach; Michael C. Dawson, Jr., professor of political science and director at the Center for the Study of Race, Politics and Culture at the University of Chicago, and Prof. Komozi Woodard, professor of history, public policy and Africana Studies at Sarah Lawrence College, participated in a workshop that attempted to find a “common ground” between the Black Left and the Black and Latino communities.
The workshop was called “Black America and the Left: Where Do We Go From Here? What is To Be Done?” Prof. Dawson, addressing the standing room only crowd, said the discussion was happening between “those of us who believe that we should rebuild radical Black politics.”
