Commentary on Supreme Court Decision


While I was giving my lecture at Bexley Public Library last night, the ideas that had preoccupied me throughout the day went live on the Huffington Post blogs. I will post about the book lecture later. In the meantime, we must change the terms of the conversation about affirmative action! I hope this piece helps people do so with more confidence.

"Supreme Court Agrees with Michigan Voters: Affirmative Action Must Remain for Whites Only"

Especially if it resonates, I hope you'll consider sharing widely.

Upcoming Lecture at Bexley Public Library



Some have said that I seem to give lectures anywhere but in Columbus, Ohio. Well, I expect this will be my last "Living with Lynching" lecture of 2014. Hope to see you there! Please spread the word!

Library of Congress Lecture Available for On-Demand Viewing


Turns out, setting your DVR for the airing of my Library of Congress lecture didn't quite work because they started earlier than the advertised time of 11PM Eastern. Thankfully, C-Span 2's BookTV immediately made the complete video available for on-demand viewing online. Feel free to let me know what you think and/or if you have questions.  http://cs.pn/1fe0hYH
