Clinton, N.Y.—Melissa Harris Lacewell, associate professor of politics and African American studies at Princeton University, will present a lecture, “Rethinking Race and Citizenship in the Age of Obama,” on Wednesday, Nov. 18, at 7:30 p.m. in the Science Center’s Kennedy Auditorium at Hamilton College. The lecture, sponsored by the Diversity and Social Justice Project, is free and open to the public.

An award-winning author, Lacewell is currently completing her latest book, Sister Citizen: A Text for Colored Girls Who’ve Considered Politics When Being Strong Isn’t Enough.  In addition to her position at Princeton, she has provided expert commentary on race and citizenship for many television, radio and print sources both in the U.S. and around the world. Her academic research is inspired by a desire to investigate the challenges facing contemporary black Americans and to better understand the multiple, creative ways that African Americans respond to these challenges.
