abroad & activism in Italy, including the Italian
student movement and Migrant Rights
movement in Europe. Photographs of Leslie's
protest participation will be on display.
Dr. Pasquale Verdicchio of Italian Studies will speak about the
racialization of Italians as white in the U.S. and the problematic issues
tied to it. Dr. Fatima El Tayeb of Literature will speak about her
research in the area of Whiteness in a European context. This will be a
dialogue between audience & presenters, NOT a lecture. What is
Whiteness? What is Europe? Does European mean white? What if a
Mexican migrated to France, what is the identity of the children?
