SUMMARY:Theorizing Liberation: Third Worldism and the Legacy of Gary Okihiro
DESCRIPTION:The Center for the Study of Ethnicity and Race (CSER) invites you to “Theorizing Liberation: Third Worldism and the Legacy of Gary Okihiro at CSER\,” a gathering in honor of the legacy of CSER’s founding director\, Gary Okihiro (1945-2024)\, who passed away in May of last year. \nGary served as CSER’s director from the Center’s formation in 1999 until 2007. He laid the groundwork for CSER to become Columbia’s only hub for comparative and interdisciplinary analysis of ethnicity\, race\, and Indigeneity\, nationally recognized for its academic initiatives and transformative scholarship. CSER now serves over 100 undergraduate majors\, minors\, and M.A. students a year. \nGary’s 2016 book\, Third World Studies: Theorizing Liberation (Duke University Press)\, contends that contemporary Ethnic Studies has fallen short of its original mandate\, which emphasized the interconnectedness of the struggles of all Third World peoples. This event brings together five of Gary’s former students\, several of whom studied with him during his years at CSER\, and went on to become accomplished scholars in the field. \nOur panelists will reflect on the histories of CSER and the field of Ethnic Studies more broadly\, Gary’s scholarly contributions\, and the prospect of Third World studies. In doing so\, they will be engaging in “a work of imagination\,” envisioning possible futures for Ethnic Studies at Columbia and beyond.
