OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.

Oxford Law Equality and Diversity Lecture 2020 - Critical Race Theory
Critical Race Theory, ‘Critical Race Theory’, and the Weaponization of Racial Illiteracy: A Report from the Front Line
Drawing on interdisciplinary writing about the law and politics of race, Professor Thomas will offer a critical account of the recent attack on Critical Race Theory by the Trump administration and its allies, arguing that President Trump’s assault is best seen as the latest historical chapter in the legal and political ‘weaponization’ of ‘compulsory racial illiteracy’.
