How will the U.S. presidential election affect foreign policy, particularly with regard to Haiti and Cuba?
Event organizers: A.B.D. Ph.D. Candidates; Allyson Salinger Ferrante, Department of Comparative Literature; Laurence Clerfeuille, Department of French; Stacy Lettman, Department of English.
Our desire is to bring together scholars across disciplines and even schools in the Southern California area to discuss the Caribbean and bring awareness to this culturally rich and politically, socially, artistically, historically important area of the world.
Our first event will be a discussion on the question of how the U.S. presidential election will affect the Caribbean. What can we predict for U.S. foreign policy under either candidate, how will social and racial relations be affected, and how will political relationships change with specific regard to Haiti and Cuba?
We have asked three professors to prepare 10-minute opinion pieces to open up discussion with an audience: Professor Michelle Gordon, Department of English; Professor Amon Emeka, Department of Sociology; and Professor Alexander Moore, Department of Anthropology.
Lunch from Coley's Caribean Cuisine will be provided for those who RSVP.
