Reconsidering Reparations: Author Talk with Olúfẹ́mi O. Táíwò

  • Busboys and Poets (14th & V) 2021 14th Street Northwest Washington, DC, 20009 United States (map)

Olúfẹ́mi O. Táíwò will discuss his new book, Reconsidering Reparations: Why Climate Justice and Constructive Politics Are Needed in the Wake of Slavery and Colonialism. Táíwò offers a clear, new case for reparations as a “constructive,” future-oriented project, one that responds to the weight of history’s injustices with just distributions of benefits and burdens.  Co-hosted by Busboys and Poets and Teaching for Change at Busboys and Poets (14th & V).
