Anti-Racism Task Force 2023 Mid-Year Webinar
Symposium on Race & Racism, "Racialization and Global Racial Hierarchies," in collaboration with the University of Michigan RacismLab and the Interdisciplinary Association for Population Health Science.
For the 2023 annual symposium on race and racism, we will focus on the concept of racialization, as it reflects the reality that racism, with its intent to control, surveil, and sacrifice some groups for the benefits of others, is dynamic, changing to fit the sociopolitical mores of the society. For those who study single societies, such as the US, understanding race, racism, and racialization from a global perspective will clarify their dynamic nature. This more nuanced understanding will facilitate creating solid research frameworks and empirical models to build and evidence base, which can inform effective policies to address social inequities.
