Michael Eric Dyson in Conversation With Dr. Lee Gabay

Head to Barnes & Nobles for a thought provoking conversation with Dr. Michael Eric Dyson on his book ” The Black Presidency: Barack Obama and the Politics of Race in America. Dr. Michael Eric Dyson explores the powerful, surprising way the politics of race have shaped Barack Obama’s identity and groundbreaking presidency. How has President Obama dealt publicly with race—as the national traumas of Tamir Rice, Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown, Eric Garner, Freddie Gray, and Walter Scott have played out during his tenure? What can we learn from Obama’s major race speeches about his approach to racial conflict and the black criticism it provokes?

In conjunction with their bookfair, Brooklyn Democracy Academy is presenting Dr. Michael Eric Dyson in conversation with Dr. Lee Gabay. Both authors will be signing their books.
