“Race and Secularism in America,” co-sponsored by Syracuse University and Vassar College

On October 26 and 27, 2012, Vincent Lloyd and Jonathon Kahn will convene a workshop at Syracuse University on “Race and Secularism in America.” The animating question of the workshop is: Why have contemporary discussions of “the secular” rarely been inflected by considerations of race, and why discussions of race rarely taken the secular into account?
