OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
The conference ‘Christian Humanism and the Black Atlantic’ (June 6-7) will open with the annual McDonald Public Lecture being given by Paul Gilroy. Winner of the highly prestigious Holberg Prize in 2019, Gilroy is an eminent public intellectual and one of the world’s leading scholars of race and racism. Professor Gilroy will reflect on the need to recover a notion of shared humanity and what he calls “reparative humanism.” A reception at St Cross, adjacent to Pusey House, follows the lecture. Given space limitations, attendance at this free, public lecture requires registration.
