The Dresher Center for the Humanities, the Center for Social Science Scholarship, the Center for Innovation, Research, and Creativity in the Arts, and the Imaging Research Center invite participants to join our new Faculty Working Group: Anti-Racism and Action.
This new group builds on the enthusiastic response to our Anti-Racism
and Action series of drop-in sessions in summer/fall 2020 and seeks to
promote new coalitions, conversations, and creative work surrounding
anti-racism in the College of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences. The
Faculty Working Group is envisioned as a collaborative,
interdisciplinary community of scholars that will support this work and
spur research and teaching activity focused on anti-racism. The group
will meet regularly to read, discuss, listen to experts, and/or plan
research and activism, as the members may decide. Funds up to $1,000
annually will be allocated to host speakers, explore technologies,
create new resources or materials, or other similar activities. We
welcome faculty from any UMBC department, other area colleges and
universities, as well as advanced UMBC graduate students.
