Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. The two-week OxTalks freeze period starts on Monday 2nd March. During this time, there will be no facility to publish or edit events. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period. Once Oxford Events launches, you will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
Why does police violence sometimes trigger violent uprisings like those in Ferguson and Baltimore this year and much of France exactly ten years ago? Why have police killings only triggered nonviolent demonstrations in New York? Cathy Lisa Schneider will speak about the relationship between police violence and urban unrest, and discuss the changes that have increased levels of urban unrest in the United States, as well as the legacy of the 2005 riots in France.
