CCB Sunday, February 9th @11AM:
“We Refuse: A Forceful History of Black Resistance”
with Dr. Kellie Carter Jackson

 
Black resistance to white supremacy is often reduced to a simple binary, between Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s nonviolence and Malcolm X’s “by any means necessary.” In We Refuse, historian Kellie Carter Jackson urges us to move past this false choice, offering an unflinching examination of the breadth of Black responses to White oppression, particularly those pioneered by Black women.
 
• Kellie Carter Jackson is the Michael and Denise Kellen ‘68 Associate Professor of Africana Studies and the Chair of the Africana Studies Department Wellesley College. She is the author of We Refuse: A Forceful History of Black Resistance and the award-winning book, Force & Freedom: Black Abolitionists and the Politics of Violence. Her essays have been published in The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Atlantic, CNN, The Nation, and a host of other outlets. She has been featured in numerous documentaries for Netflix, PBS, MSNBC, and Apple TV. She co-hosts the podcast, “This Day in Political Esoteric History.”
 
Music by Fulani Haynes, vocals & Michael Shea, piano
