Lecture 1: Multiracial Coalitions

We will explore the history of diverse coalitions that have resisted the backlash to social progress.

---

We’ve never truly reckoned with our nation’s racial history.

Socially, we remain segregated and siloed, and efforts towards truth-telling and progress are met with a forceful backlash to preserve an oppressive social order and status quo.

Yet throughout history, diverse coalitions have risen to challenge injustice and push for a more inclusive democracy. Thus, in this three-part course, we’ll explore how these collectives have had to navigate internal tensions while also being called to build longer bridges externally, across deep political and ideological divides to foster unlikely allies.
