SUMMARY:The USA's 250th Anniversary: A Conversation with Eddie S. Glaude Jr
 .
DESCRIPTION:Please join @uc_hri and the UC Humanities Network for a convers
 ation on the new annual theme\, “States of Exception\, States of Emergen
 ce\,” between Professor Eddie S. Glaude Jr. @esglaude (Princeton Univers
 ity) and UCHRI Director Jaimey Fisher.\n\nProfessor Glaude recently publis
 hed America\, U.S.A.: How Race Shadows the Nation’s Anniversaries (2026)
 \, looking back from the 250th anniversary of the United States at how the
  US has struggled to acknowledge its complex history. For Professor Glaude
 \, many milestone national anniversaries have re-affirmed myths as much as
  retrospectively reflected them. Those abiding myths and much-needed refle
 ctions occasion a critical evaluation of how collective memory has operate
 d in broader US culture for centuries\, particularly around concepts like 
 innocence and freedom. This incisive intervention\, at a key moment in the
  US’s history\, is part of a broader examination by Professor Glaude at 
 how our nation has long been a contested notion\, struggling to acknowledg
 e a past riven with violent inequality and to imagine a more just future.\
