Etznik Talk with Shelley Fishkin: Unlearning Racism: What we can learn from Mark Twain (Virtual)

Wednesday, July 1, 2020 9 Tammuz 5780

1:00 PM - 2:00 PMVirtual

How does the son of a slave-holder become one of the greatest anti-racist writers in America? Why did Mark Twain embark on his own personal little-known plan of affirmative action? How might art and performance change our awareness of racism? Learn and explore this timely topic with Shelley and other Etzniks.

Shelley Fishkin's research on Mark Twain and race has been featured twice on the front page of the New York Times.
