In celebration of LGBTQIA+ Pride Month, please join us for an interview with New School President Dr. Dwight A. McBride as he delves into his career, scholarship, and the issues facing the LGBTQIA+ community. He will be joined by New School alumna Dr. Siobhan Brooks, MA Sociology ’01 & PhD Sociology ’08, author of the recently released book Everyday Violence against Black and Latinx LGBT Communities, who will interview him about his journey to his current role; his scholarship on race theory, Black studies, and identity politics; and the importance of his leadership at this time in the University's and the nation's history.

This event is presented by the Office of Equity, Inclusion, and Social Justice in collaboration with the Office of Alumni Engagement. To see the other events in this series, visit the LGBTQIA+ Pride Month 2021 hub.
