Eduardo Bonilla-Silva, Why Cant We Just Get Along?... Brown University 2015-07-02 | Full Title: Eduardo Bonilla-Silva, "Why Can't We Just Get Along?: Race Matters in the Colorblind Racial Movement""Race Today: A Symposium on Race in America" brought a group of the nation’s most respected intellectuals on race, racial theory and racial inequality together to consider the troubling state of black life in America today. What are the broader structural factors that shape race today? How do these factors work on the ground and institutionally and what are the consequences? What are the ideas about race, and racial identities that enable the normalcy of stark racial differences today? In particular, what role do key ideas such as “colorblindness” and “post race” play in shaping perception and outcomes? What can be done to challenge ideological and structural impediments to a racially egalitarian society?Eduardo Bonilla-Silva is a Professor of Sociology at Duke University. Bonilla-Silva speaks widely on race and ethnic matters nation wide. He has published four books: White Supremacy and Racism in the Post-Civil Rights Era (co-winner of the 2002 Oliver Cox Award given by the American Sociological Association), Racism Without Racists: Color-Blind Racism and the Persistence of Racial Inequality in the United States (2004 Choice Award; this book is now in a second expanded and revised edition that was published in 2006), White Out: The Continuing Significance of Racism (with Ashley Doane), and (with Tukufu Zuberi) White Logic, White Methods: Racism and Social Science.

Embrace Medical Brown University 2024-09-13 | Over 600,000 below-the-knee prosthetic users in the US use an uncomfortable prosthetic socket. An uncomfortable and poor-fitting prosthetic socket can lead to pain, rashes, and even infection, causing more trips to the hospital. Part of the reason why this is the case is because an amputee’s residual limb (the part that fits into the socket) fluctuates in volume throughout the day. The majority of current sockets are rigid, with a few adjustable options which are tedious for the user. Embrace Medical aims to solve this issue by creating an automatically adjustable prosthetic to create a better fit for prosthetic leg users.

Debates over genomics research on race, racialized algorithms, high maternal mortality of Black women, profit, and myriad social movements contesting racism in medicine have been especially contentious. Learn about the work of an interdisciplinary group of scholars from across Brown who, over the past six years, have been interrogating how power and knowledge-making practices in these arenas operate to produce and re-produce racism, oftentimes invisibly.Panelists:Lundy Braun, CSSJ Faculty Fellow Co-Chair of Race, Medicine, and Social Justice Research Cluster, Royce Family Professor in Teaching Excellence, Professor of Africana Studies and Medical ScienceTaneisha Wilson, CSSJ Faculty Fellow Co-Chair of Race, Medicine, and Social Justice Research Cluster, Assistant Professor, Emergency Medicine, Attending Physician, Brown Emergency Medicine, Director, Equity Initiatives, Brown Emergency MedicineEric T.
