David Embrick: Africana Studies Institute Faculty Research Funding

Congratulations to David Embrick, who is a distinguished awardee for the competitive 2019-2020 Africana Studies Institute Faculty Research Funding for his proposal titled "Blackness, Racial Oppression, and Continued Violations of Human Rights: Comparing [illegally occupied] Palestine and [racial apartheid in] South Africa."

The Africana Studies Institute (ASI) at the University of Connecticut prioritizes faculty research and extraordinary, cross institutional events for wide public dissemination (irrespective of disciplinary moorings) that privilege African-descended perspectives (continental or diasporic).
