Join us for a conversation with Matthew Jacobson (co-director of the Yale Public Humanities Program and the Sterling Professor of American Studies, History & African American Studies at Yale) and Robin D. G. Kelley (the Gary B. Nash Professor of American History at the University of California, Los Angeles) on Professor Jacobson’s new book, “Dancing Down the Barricades: Sammy Davis Jr. and the Long Civil Rights Era, A Cultural History” (University of California Press, 2023).

The 2023 Windham-Campbell Prize recipients will be in residence on Yale’s campus from September 19-22 for a multi-day international literary festival during which they will share their work, engage in conversation on a range of subjects, and celebrate reading and the written word with the New Haven community.
The festival will feature a keynote address by American cultural critic and music journalist Greil Marcus.
The full schedule of talks, discussions, and readings is available at windhamcampbell.org.

In this session, we will highlight what it means to consider inclusive design, what it practically looks like, when it is appropriate, and how it overlaps with universal design principles.
