Please join Morgan State University’s Program for the Study of the Middle East & North Africa and Johns Hopkins University's Chloe Center and for a landmark event. Award-winning, bestselling author and Baltimore native Ta-Nehisi Coates will speak with Dr. Sara Rahnama (Morgan State) and Dr. Nathan Connolly (JHU History) to address the urgent need to untangle ourselves from the destructive myths that shape our world. Coates will address how traveling to Senegal, South Carolina, and, particularly, occupied Palestine caused him to rethink how he had accepted certain myths about politics, history, and social change.
Doors will open at 6pm, and the event will begin at 7pm. Books will be available for purchase. This event is free and open to all. No registration required.
