The Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture brings the campus to the community for a series of roundtable conversations at 6:30pm on the first Thursday of each month. The founding curators of this series, Professors Jeanne Theoharis (Brooklyn College/CUNY) and Komozi Woodard (Sarah Lawrence College), introduced a new paradigm that challenged the older geography, leadership, ideology, culture and chronology of Civil Rights historiography. Jeanne Theoharis continues in her role and is joined by Robyn C. Spencer-Antoine (Wayne State University) as co-curator. Komozi Woodard continues to advise the series from an emeritus position.
