Pullias Center to Host Webinar Examining Critical Race Theory (CRT) on January 26, 2023

The webinar will be facilitated by Pullias Center Alumni Award winners Raquel M. Rall (UC Riverside) and Antar Tichavakunda (UC Santa Barbara) who were awarded a Pullias Center 2022 Alumni Award to support racial equity-related research and projects.

What is Critical Race Theory (CRT)?

This oft-misunderstood theory has elicited strong responses and moral panic, with some researchers suggesting that CRT is not a theory and questioning its rigor and validity.

In this webinar, we will explore what CRT is and is not with a panel of scholars who ground their research and practice in CRT. The interactive zoom session will provide an opportunity for attendees to ask questions of our expert panel and learn more about CRT. Attendees will also be entered into a drawing to receive a signed copy of the books the panelists have authored.

Panelists:
Kaleb Briscoe — Mississippi State University
Nichole Garcia — Rutgers University
Aja Martinez — University of North Texas
Victor Ray — University of Iowa
