Assistant professor Sean Eversley-Bradwell is going to give a lecture with one of the most provocative titles that's come across the Rattle desk in quite some time.  It's "Freedom Ride or Die: Barack or the Bullet."

From the Intercom announcement:

"Post racial." "Racially transcendent." "Beyond race." These are just some of the media phrases that have been used to discuss the election of Barack Obama. By examining the one-drop rule and double-consciousness, the talk will map the racial realignment of the 2008 U.S. elections.

Ultimately, the concluding event of the fall DIIS discussion series presents questions about the racial legacy of the U.S. Civil Rights movement and the future of 'race' in the U.S. Please join us for the dialogue.
