A podcast about erased, displaced and under threat Black communities and spaces.
5 MAR 2021 · We've made it to the other side of the learning curve and are back with episode five of, "I Remember A Place Name..." a podcast about erased, displaced and under-threat Black communities and space," with host Cheeraz Gormon featuring Dr. Geoff Ward of Washington University- St. Louis, MO.
Geoff Ward is Professor of African and African-American Studies, Sociology and American Culture Studies at Washington University in St. Louis. His scholarship focuses on the racial politics of social control and pursuit of racial justice, historically and today.
His current projects examine broader histories of racist violence, the legacies of racist violence, and implications for repair. Ward is also a founding member of the Reparative Justice Coalition of St. Louis, a community-based organization working to commemorate histories of racist violence and to address their legacies in the St. Louis region.
In episode five, Cheeraz and Dr. Ward discuss the impacts of Black child incarceration on communities, how the legacies of racial violences continues to do harm, what redress and repair may require of us all, and how the untold story of racial violence in his own family influences his work. Â
