Reflections on the “Free” in Academic Freedom: Diversity and the Scholar Activist

When: April 18, 2018, 4:30 pm - 6:30 pm
Where: Elizabeth Hemmerdinger Hall

Presenter(s): Patricia Matthew (Montclair State University)


In this ACERT Special Event, author Patricia Matthew will present on the importance of sustaining a diverse intellectual ecosystem in a moment when all faculty, but particularly faculty of color, face important choices about how to do their work.

Her talk will be based on the research she completed for the “Activism(s)” section of Written/Unwritten, her work with scholars like Jessie Daniels and Tressie McMillan Cottom on the urgent need to protect intellectual and academic freedom, and her discussions with scholars from around the country.

Join us for a wine and cheese reception from 4:30 pm – 5:15 pm, followed by talk at 5:15 pm, and more reception at the conclusion of the talk.
