Inclusive Futures: Race, Religion, and PCRS

This discussion with Bernadette Andrea, Geraldine Heng, Stephanie Shirilan, and Lehua Yim will address the reach and limits of antiracist research and teaching. This discussion aims to have an honest conversation about who is included and who is excluded when it comes to antiracist work in premodern studies. How do we engage (or do we engage with) anti-Semitism? Islamophobia? anti-Asian racism? anti-immigrant sentiments? Namely, how do we envision effective allyship in premodern studies?
