Randall Kennedy ’77, the Michael R. Klein Professor of Law at Harvard Law School, will give two lectures positing the ends and means suitable currently for advancing the cause of racial justice in America. Lecture one will focus on aims — what should racial “justice” mean today? Lecture two will focus on strategy — what are optimal ways of proceeding in a polarized polity in which racial prejudices and resentments constitute significant impediments to needed reforms.

Randall L. Kennedy is the author of several books, the most recent of which is “Say it Loud! On Race, Law, Culture and History.”

The event will be livestreamed by Princeton Media Central.

Sponsored by the Departments of History, Philosophy, and Politics, James Madison Program, the Program in Law and Normative Thinking, the Program in Law and Public Policy, the Princeton Policy Advocacy Clinic and the School of Public and International Affairs
