On November 16, Eddie S. Glaude Jr., author of Begin Again: James Baldwin’s America and Its Urgent Lessons for Our Own and James S. McDonnell Distinguished University Professor and chair of the Department of African American Studies at Princeton University, joined Keri Day, associate professor of constructive theology and African American religion, for a virtual conversation. Glaude and Day discussed his new release and its relevance to the current political and religious landscape in the United States, answering questions from the audience. Their discussion was titled “Electoral Aftermath: Can We Still Begin Again?”
“At Princeton, we had precept groups—we’d engage text and debate. That gave me confidence to have those conversations anywhere.”
