The Sound Studies Blog" — will deliver a presentation on her book "The Sonic Color Line:  Race and the Cultural Politics of Listening" (NYU, 2016).

 

A Q&A on sound studies, music and other aural media in American culture will follow. Refreshments will be served; this event is free and open to the public.

This program has been supported by the Department of English and Philosophy, the Africana Studies program, and the Career Development Awards (Office of the Provost/Faculty Affairs).
