🗓️Save the date!🗓️ Keseb will host the inaugural discussion of our new 2024 Mega Election Year Event Series, “Race, Civic Identity, and Self-Expression,” one week from today on January 30th from 1pm-2pm ET. Featuring Keseb Democracy Fellows Julian W. of PushBlack and Tessa Dooms of Rivonia Circle, the conversation will be on the term “Coloured,” an important identity in South Africa, yet a controversial descriptor in the United States due to its ties to the oppressive Jim Crow era. Julian will interview Tessa, recent co-author of “Coloured: How Classification Became Culture,” an exploration of the South African “Coloured” identity. This conversation on the historical and cultural nuances that shape race, civic identity, and self-expression is not to be missed.
