Thinking Black Intellectuals in Rochester

Posted on | February 3, 2010 | No Comments

(I’ll be there; I don’t know why this delights me but I’ve never been able to walk from home to an academic conference before!)

On Friday, February 5 and Saturday, February 6, 2010, University of Rochester’s Frederick Douglass Institute for African & African-American Studies will hold a conference entitled “Thinking Black Intellectuals” featuring some of today’s most important scholars in the field.  The conference is free and open to the public; it is co-sponsored by the Humanities Project and South Atlantic Quarterly (Duke Univ), which is publishing a special issue on which the conference presentations will be based.
