The book “His Name Is George,” insightfully written by Robert Samuels and Toluse Olorunnipa, two Washington Post journalists, chronicles George Floyd’s life and his multi-generational history, which parallels history detailed in books like The 1619 Project and Caste: The Origins of Our Discontent.

Join us for a look at current events in this class led by Katherine Dowd-Gulotta.
