This week at Balkinization we are hosting a symposium on Rogers M. Smith and Desmond King's new book, America’s New Racial Battle Lines: Protect versus Repair (University of Chicago Press, 2024).
We have assembled a terrific group of commentators, including Evan Bernick (Northern Illinois), Alexandra Filindra (Illinois-Chicago), Jim Fleming (B.U.), Linda McClain (B.U.), Carol Nackenoff (Swarthmore), Corey Robin (Brooklyn College), Chloe Nicol Thurston (Northwestern), and Rebecca Zietlow (U. Toledo).
At the conclusion, Rogers and Desmond will respond to the commentators.
