SUMMARY:FOCAL POINT Dialogues in History Webinar I: Sovereignty and the Political
DESCRIPTION:The History Department’s Colloquium Committee warmly invites you to attend the inaugural session of our FOCAL POINT Dialogues in History series.  Inspired by the History Department’s Statement on the George Floyd Uprising and its invocation to understand and interrogate our racialized past and the investments of disciplinary history within it\, the series brings together UCSB History faculty and graduate students who have volunteered to lead a dialogue on Black life\, race\, and antiblackness in history. The conversations will engage Herman Bennett’s African Kings and Black Slaves as a focal point to discuss themes like sovereignty\, empire\, and racial capitalism from different historical angles of vision. \nOur inaugural webinar will engage Prof. Herman Bennett’s emphasis on sovereignty and the importance of the political in understanding the history of race in the world.
