Presented by UCSB’s Interdisciplinary Humanities Center

Taifha Natalee Alexander from UCLA drew on research in history, social sciences, and the humanities, to explain how critical race theory demonstrates how laws and policies can reproduce racial inequality—even when they are adopted without explicit racial bias. Alexander discussed critical race theory, its founding, and contributions, and the recent assault on the theory.
