Black History Black Futures Book Club: Superior by Angela Saini

Author Angela Saini is joining GALA partners Bath Spa University, SUNY Geneseo, Claremont Graduate University, and University of Bath for a live virtual keynote talk on 15 October at 1pm EST as part of Black History Black Futures celebrations. In preparation for the live author event, the organizers invite you to join them for a virtual book club, engaging with her book Superior: The Return of Race Science, which The Guardian describes as “an urgent, important book.” 

Prior to her talk, on 13 October at 1pm, Bath Spa will host virtual discussions of the book in small groups for students and staff of the four colleges. A final virtual follow up conversation will be held on 20 October at 1pm EST.  

SUNY Geneseo students, staff, and faculty may request a free copy of Saini's book in exchange for participating in the 10/13 discussion (contact smithlj@geneseo.edu if you are interested in reading the book but cannot make that time; if there is demand we will organize a local Geneseo discussion). Participants must sign up to reserve a space in the virtual book club.
