Please join us to hear Professor Deborah Thomas (University of Pennsylvania) speak about her current work and its implications for a decolonized anthropology. Prof. Thomas is a leading scholar of race, gender, and violence in the context of post-colonial state formation. A specialist in the Caribbean region, Prof. Thomas’s work interrogates how new class economies, ideologies of belonging, and constructions of social difference articulate with ongoing reconstructions of race as a global category.
