About this listen
What is “classics”—is it a place, a period of time, or a value judgment? How can texts from over 2,000 years ago be related to racism today? And what can we do about it? Join host Dean Brian Edwards and Dan-el Padilla Peralta, Associate Professor of Classics at Princeton University, as they discuss these questions and more in this episode of Anti-Racism and the Disciplines.
