(Scholar's Symposium, The University of Tampa, 2017-09-22) Gaines, Alisha
We are in seemingly unprecedented times. Dr. Alisha Gaines, professor at Florida State and author of the recent book Black for a Day: White Fantasies of Race and Empathy, will detail how her unique, genealogical history of cross-racial experiments in empathy can teach us about allyship, intentionality, politics, and race--even today.
