Discussion | Structural Racism in Brazil and the US (online)


Brazil and the United States share significant aspects of their colonial histories, legacies of slavery, and the resulting structural racism that permeates their institutions. Studies abound regarding the disproportionate impacts and effects of mass incarceration, police brutality, and income inequality, to name a few, among black and brown populations in both countries. Despite these similarities, the demographic makeup of these two nations could not be more different: while roughly 55% of Brazil´s population identifies as black or mixed race, approximately 12% of Americans identify as black. What can a comparative look at these countries teach us about the consequences of structural racism and about potential solutions to eradicate racism from our societies?

Chan School of Public Health Silvio Almeida, Edward Larocque Tinker Visiting Professor, Institute of Latin American Studies, Columbia University; President, Luiz Gama Institute Moderator: Marcia Castro, Andelot Professor of Demography; Chair of the Department of Global Health and Population, Harvard T.H.

Lecture | The UN's First Strategic Action Plan on Addressing Racism (online)


The United Nations plays a key role in promoting anti-racism work across the globe. UN Secretary-General António Guterres stressed “Racism and racial inequality still permeate institutions, social structures and everyday life.” Sometimes this means that the UN needs to focus on how to address racial discrimination within its own ranks. In December 2021, the Secretary-General’s Task Force on Addressing Racism and Promoting Dignity for All in the UN Secretariat released its first-ever strategic action plan that spells out how to encourage reporting and enhance accountability, monitoring and transparency.   The UN’s Teddy Keya discusses the key recommendations and challenges for reassessing the UN’s structures and institutions to create trust, effectively address racism and support racial diversity, equity and inclusion.

Staged Reading | Let It Use You: Girls at Bible School

Haniah wants to catch the holy spirit, Cece wants out, Ruth wants her tortuous thoughts to stop, and Denise is just happy to be here. They debate. They bond. They fight. They tap into the divine. Or maybe they unleash something else.

Discussion | A Conversation with Artist Andy Bichlbaum (online)


For over two decades the Yes Men, the “culture-jamming” duo of Andy Bichlbaum and Mike Bonanno, have engaged in high-stakes performative hijinks against government and corporate entities to reveal the hypocrisy behind the organizations’ official policies and pronouncements about environmental issues. The SurvivaBall, for example, was Halliburton’s practical solution to disasters caused by global warming: a personal inflatable bubble that contains everything one needs to survive catastrophic floods, fires, hurricanes, or droughts, and thus to “enjoy a safe and happy stay on our changing planet.”

Author Reading | The Queerness of Home: Gender, Sexuality, and the Politics of Domesticity after World War II (online)


From the Stonewall riots to the protests of ACT UP, histories of queer and trans politics have almost exclusively centered on public activism. Cornell University's Stephen Vider turns the focus inward, showing that the intimacy of domestic space has been equally crucial to the history of postwar LGBTQ life. In this important cultural history, Vider examines how LGBTQ activists trained their attention on the home as a site of connection, care, and cultural inclusion— struggling against the conventions of marriage, challenging the gendered codes of everyday labor, and contesting the racial and class boundaries of kinship and belonging—and by doing so, realized new forms of community and culture for themselves and new possibilities of home life for everyone.
