OxTalks is Changing
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 punishment against black girls and women and its political consequences
Please join the Zoom room 5 minutes before the colloquium begins.
Established research in political science has revealed the superlative political participation of Black American women. Yet, Black women and girls also represent a disproportionate percentage of the prison system and the fastest growing juvenile justice population, respectively. Still, there is very little work on the public perceptions shaping Black women and girls and its negative impacts on their experiences with punishment and political participation. This work seeks to intervene on this gap and in so doing provides a serious contribution to research on this important, but often overlooked, group in American Democracy.
