SUMMARY:Imagining California Panel Discussion: Reparations in California
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a discussion on reparations in California with panelists Daina Ramey Berry (UCSB)\, Tiffany Caesar (San Francisco State University)\, and Jovan Scott Lewis (UC Berkeley)\, moderated by Giuliana Perrone (UCSB). Panelists will consider the history of reparations in the United States\, explain why they are being considered in California\, and assess the current status of plans for reparations in San Francisco as well as the state as a whole. Audience Q&A and a reception will follow. \nDaina Ramey Berry is the Michael Douglas Dean of Humanities and Fine Arts at UCSB.

She is the award-winning author and editor of six books and numerous scholarly articles. Her most recent book\, A Black Women’s History of the United States\, won the 2021 Susan Koppelman Award for the Best Book in Feminist Studies\, was a 2021 NAACP Finalist for Literary Non-Fiction\, and received honorable mention for the 2021 Darlene Clark Hine Book Award sponsored by the Organization of American Historians. \nTiffany Caesar is an Assistant Professor of Africana Studies at San Francisco State University.
