Concluding Roundtable: Race, Slavery, and Yale's Construction of its Memory This panel of experts and writers with wide-ranging interests in the legacies of slavery will address the broad subject of how universities or other institutions face their past or present engagements with racial ideologies and racist practices. A particular focus will be how Yale has forged its own historical memory over time in regard to these topics.
