Jennifer Hochschild Public Talk on Creating a New Racial Order on May 9th

Jennifer Hochschildwill be coming from Harvard to speak about her latest book, Creating a New Racial Order on May 9th at 4:30 in Rocky 003

The American racial order— the beliefs, institutions, and practices that organize relationships among the nation's races and ethnicities--is undergoing its greatest transformation since the 1960s. Creating a New Racial Order takes a groundbreaking look at the reasons behind this dramatic change, and considers how different groups of Americans are being affected. Through revealing narrative and striking research, the authors show that the personal and political choices of Americans will be critical to how, and how much, racial hierarchy is redefined in decades to come.
