Stage for Debate: Respectability and Activism
In October 2015, Dr. Randall Kennedy published an article in Harper’s Magazine arguing a progressive defense of respectability politics. For our inaugural debate at the Schomburg Center, we bring together a contemporary debate on respectability and its relationship to activism and black liberation movements in the U.S. and abroad. Dr. Brittney Cooper and Mychal Denzel Smith will join Dr. Kennedy for an important discussion on representation and the underbelly of Black sociocultural politics.
