Join Dr. Neal A. Lester in a conversation about and signing of this 2024 book, Social Justice in Action: Models for Campus and Community. This edited volume “showcase(s) practical approaches to diversity, equity, and inclusion.” The volume is rooted in humanities work and emphasizes the principles of ASU Project Humanities’ Humanity 101®– compassion, empathy, forgiveness, integrity, kindness, respect, and self-reflection.
In partnership with ASU Library’s Black Collections, Dr. Lester offers behind-the-scenes glimpses into academic publishing gatekeeping and considers the impact of current political moments that might well ban his book from some public access. Social Justice in Action is available at MLA.com.
