This event has been omitted from most of the MLK
Day-related listings I've seen.  But I'm looking
forward to it.

Molly Secours
"Whispering Black: Code Talk for Whites"

Tuesday, January 24, 2006
7pm

Foellinger Auditorium
 
In "Whispering Black," Molly Secours addresses the
hushed tones often used by those classified as white
whenever referring to race. She also illustrates how
avoiding meaningful racial discussions only furthers
the divide between whites and non-whites- thereby
maintaining the benefits of "white privilege" and the
injustices of white supremacy.By honestly examining
our thoughts, behaviors, and history regarding race,
Secours excavates the origins of our biases and
deepens our understanding so that we can more
consciously change our actions and strengthen our
commitment to social justice.
