Shifting Racial Ideologies in the 21st Century

Session Submission Type: Invited Session (90 minute)

Description

How are racial ideologies shifting alongside key issues afflicting U.S. and global society a quarter into the 21st century? From the re-normalization of overt expression of racism, the mainstreaming of white nationalism and fascism, the growth of the multiracial right, the success and limits anti-racist initiatives and movements, or the ongoing genocide in Gaza and shifting definitions of antisemitism. This session assembles a group of leading scholars to discuss these and other issues and how they are contributing (or not) to shifting our understanding of racism and racial ideologies today.
