CLACLS invites our community to attend an upcoming talk at the W. E. B. Du Bois Center featuring Dr. Matheus Gato de Jesus.
In “The Reception of Du Bois in Brazilian Social Thought,” Dr. Gato de Jesus examines how W. E. B. Du Bois’s work has been engaged and debated in Brazil, from affirmative action policies and Black social movements to ongoing discussions about race in academic research and public policy.
The talk will also highlight the Du Bois Project at Afro-CEBRAP, an initiative expanding access to his work in Portuguese and fostering dialogue across academia and civil society.
