Building an Anti-Racist Vocabulary
Join the Klau Institute for Civil and Human Rights as Jennifer Guglielmo explores what we mean when we say that race is a social construct, with particular attention to the shifting racial identity of Italian Americans throughout American history. Guilielmo is associate professor of history at Smith College. She is an award-winning author, teacher, and public historian specializing in the histories of labor, race, women, migration and revolutionary social movements. Guglielmo has published on a range of topics, working-class feminisms, anarchism, whiteness and the Italian diaspora. Her book, Living the Revolution: Italian Women's Resistance and Radicalism in New York City, 1880-1945 received several national awards.
