This is the 4th in our Conversation on Race Series, and we’re excited to share a new experience with you.
This event will begin with breakfast at 7:30 a.m., followed by a live video recording of the weekly webcast Left of Black, with host Mark Anthony Neal, PhD, Professor of African and African American Studies at Duke University and Director of the Center for Arts, Digital Culture and Entrepreneurship (CADCE).
Dr. Neal will be interviewing award-winning author Ms. Emily Raboteau whose work focuses on race, place and identity. Her books include the critically acclaimed "The Professor’s Daughter: A Novel,: and "Searching for Zion: The Quest for Home in the African Diaspora." She also contributed to this year’s New York Times bestseller, "The Fire This Time: A New Generation Speaks About Race" and is Uptown Correspondent for The New Yorker magazine.
Following the live webcast, there will be an open audience discussion/Q&A with Dr. Neal and Ms. Raboteau and the session will conclude with a book signing.
