Presenter: Therese Ragen, PhD

This lecture will present the journey of a descendant of one of the leaders of the 1919 Chicago race riot in which dozens of people were killed, hundreds wounded and some thousand homes of Black people were burned down. The journey traced in the presentation is from the 1919 race riot to a racial enactment between a White psychologist/psychoanalyst and a Black patient in 2006 to the presenter’s involvement (since 2023) in racial reparations in the Chicago neighborhood in which the riot occurred.

Registration is required. Event will not be recorded.
