SUMMARY:Historic Newton presents: Half American - The Epic Story of Black Americans Fighting WWII
DESCRIPTION:For Black Americans World War II was about not only America’s standing in the world but also about how much actual freedom would exist in the United States. Black troops fought bravely in combat and they formed the backbone of the U.S. military’s supply effort\, all while fighting in a segregated military. Black veterans returned from the war and kept fighting white supremacy at home. Drawing on his upcoming book\, historian Matthew Delmont explains how World War II raised questions regarding race and democracy that remain unanswered more than seventy years later. This is an inspiring history of bravery and patriotism in the face of unfathomable racism. This event is part of the Newton History Series co-sponsored by Historic Newton and the Newton Free Library. Register here for this Zoom talk.

SUMMARY:Newton Free Library presents: Racism Not Race with Joseph L. Graves and Alan H. Goodman
DESCRIPTION:Authors Joseph L. Graves Jr. and Alan H. Goodman will discuss their book Racism\, Not Race: Answers to Frequently Asked Questions. The science on race is clear. Common categories like “Black\,” “White\,” and “Asian” do not represent genetic differences among groups. But if race is a pernicious fiction according to natural science\, it is all too significant in the day-to-day lives of racialized people across the globe. Drawing on evidence from both natural and social science\, Graves and Goodman dismantle the myth of gene-based racial difference and demonstrate that the ideology of racism created races. Racism\, Not Race shows readers why antiracist principles are both just and backed by sound science. \nJoseph L. Graves Jr. is a professor in the Department of Biology at North Carolina A&T State University. He is a fellow of the Council of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. His books include The Emperor’s New Clothes: Biological Theories of Race at the Millennium (2001) and The Race Myth: Why We Pretend Race Exists in America (2005). \nAlan H. Goodman is a professor of biological anthropology at Hampshire College and a former vice president for academic affairs. He is a past president of the American Anthropological Association and codirects its public education project on race. He is a coauthor of Race: Are We So Different? (second edition\, 2019)\, among other books. \nPlease register for the zoom link here. This program is presented in partnership with the Ashland Public Library\, the event sponsor.  The zoom link will come from ashlandprograms@minlib.net.
