Distinguished
Professor Charles R. Lawrence will join us for a presentation to the law school
community on March 14. His topic focuses
on the social-political construction of race and social identity under law and
in legal institutional life, through the lens of Omi and Winant’s Racial Formation
Theory. He will examine subtle demands
for assimilation and silence around race in legal academia, and what you can do
about it. A discussion about the
processes and politics of racial and other social identity construction in law
and legal education will follow.
