Does It Matter If You're Black or White?

« back to classes page
ClassGraphic In this study group we will explore the nuances of race and the complexities of racial designations in American society. We will attempt to better understand racial identity and the influence of culture on the Black experience. Whatever the hue of one's skin, the complex interplay of race, class, and identity is part and parcel of being Black in America. Is race in America by definition cultural or biological? Join us as we discuss and consider candid narratives with striking portraiture which convey the diversity of Blackness. We use One Drop: Shifting the Lens on Race by Yaba Blay (Beacon Press Books, 2021) to guide our study as we delve into the issue of self-identity.
