Art and Urbanism Lecture: “Who We Be: The Colorization of America”

Jeff Chang, American Book Award winner, visits SMU for the first time to conduct a lecture on his latest seminal work, Who We Be: The Colorization of America.

From the dream of integration to the reality of colorization, Who We Be remixes comic strips and contemporary art, campus protests and corporate marketing campaigns, Martin Luther King, Jr. and Trayvon Martin into a powerful, unusual and timely cultural history of the idea of racial progress.

Co-presented with the Office of Multicultural Student Affairs.
