Associate Professor of Women's & Gender Studies and Anthropology; Director, Center for the Study of Race, Ethnicity & Gender
The Center for the Study of Race, Ethnicity & Gender (CSREG) facilitates University-wide discussion of issues of race, ethnicity and gender through events such as the annual Black Experiences Lecture and the annual speaker series, and co-sponsored film series, lectures and other campus-wide events. CSREG is comparative and international in scope and draws on a faculty whose research interests span the globe.
Since 1987, Bucknell has organized an annual Black Experiences Lecture. Each fall, the Center for the Study of Race, Ethnicity & Gender sponsors this lecture, which focuses primarily on the African American experience. The Black Experience Lecture is intended for a wide audience and draws audience members from campus, as well as the local community. The series has featured prominent scholars from a range of disciplines, including political science, linguistics, anthropology, history and photography.
The Center for the Study of Race, Ethnicity & Gender hosts a speaker series each year centered around a different theme.
Performing against Power, Privilege and Injustice (2019-20)
Indigeneity: Making the Visible Seen (2018-19)
Class in America (2017-18)
Latinos in the United States (2016-17)
Honoring the Legacy of James Baldwin/Price of the Ticket: African American Artists – Activism, Aesthetics and the Atelier (2015-16)
CSREG-BIPP Series on The Civil Rights Act and the Voting Rights Act: Fifty Years After (2014-15)
The Center for the Study of Race, Ethnicity & Gender faculty colloquia series enables Bucknell faculty to present their ongoing research and works-in-progress to fellow faculty members and students. Each year, three to five faculty members present their research on a wide range of topics. We often invite faculty who have received CSREG summer research grants to present the results of their projects in these colloquia.
