Joshua Inwood will give the James M. Blaut Award and Plenary Lecture: “Finance Capital, Lehman Brothers, and the Geography of Racial Capitalism” from 9-10:20 AM HST / 3-4:20 EDT. In person Room 312 (Ni`ihua), Third Floor, as well as streaming!
A description of Joshua Inwood's talk: The text partially reads: "In the spirit of Blaut’s life and legacy, I trace the development of Lehman Brothers from their roots as a dry goods store in Montgomery, Alabama, into a Fortune 500 global financial services company that collapsed in the 2007 financial crisis. I have two purposes. First, I want to reveal the contours of US-style racial capitalism. Second, I want to advance an interrelated argument: the geographic case for reparations."
