Listen "Shared Blackness: Prof. Carol Bailey"
Episode Synopsis
How is Blackness shared? Though it is obviously important to recognize different experiences of Blackness, Professor of Black Studies Carol Bailey believes “there is more to be gained from acknowledging what Black people share.” Beginning with a passage from A Brief History of Seven Killings by Jamaican author Marlon James, Professor Bailey’s conversation with host Priscilla Lee ’25 and Evelyn Chi ’25 spans Toni Morrison novels, Caribbean histories, and Amherst College anecdotes to trace a story of solidarity and community across the diaspora.
