Temple Sinai's Series on Anti-Racism
In the context of Isabelle Wilkerson's thesis in Caste: The Origins of Our Discontents, we will explore how the driving force of racism led to both the Holocaust and the oppression of African Americans in the 1930s. We will learn what the Nazi regime thought about American law with regard to citizenship, voting rights, interracial marriage, and immigration. We will discuss the historical connections between American race law and the infamous Nuremberg Laws.
Dr. Karen Gaffney is Professor of English at Raritan Valley Community College in New Jersey. Her book, Dismantling the Racism Machine: A Manual and Toolbox is an accessible introduction to race and racism with tools for action. She presents at national conferences, serves on the steering committee of the Hunterdon County Anti-Racism Coalition in NJ, co-facilitates the Community Course on Racism based in Somerville, NJ, and manages the anti-racism website Divided No Longer available at www.dividednolonger.com.
