Presented by the Institute for Child Development and Family Relations, Elliott’s talk will take place in the Santos Manuel Student Union Events Center, and complements the Anthropology Museum exhibit “smallasaGIANT,” set to run April 15-June 15.
Elliott, who developed the “Blue Eyes/Brown Eyes” exercise after the 1968 assassination of Martin Luther King Jr., showed how people can recognize and identify disparities in the ways in which power is assigned and maintained.
Richard Rothstein, a noted expert on American racial disparities, shared his expertise and discussed his New York Times bestselling book, “The Color of Law: A Forgotten History of How our Government Segregated America.”
A little more than a year after its first discussion on American exceptionalism, CSUSB’s Yotie Talks will reprise the topic with “American Exceptionalism Panel 2.0,” beginning at noon Friday, May 31, at the Santos Manuel Student Union Theater.
