Politics, race and culture: Dyson to speak at Mizzou

Posted on Feb. 6, 2008 by Lisa Bruce

Michael Eric Dyson moves between academia and pop culture — drawing connections and examining politics, race and culture — in a way that few do. It makes him an ideal speaker to engage students, faculty, staff and the community.

Dyson has written 14 books and teaches at Georgetown University. He’s a renowned intellectual and a commentator for national media.

Dyson presents the keynote address for Black History Month at Mizzou at 7 p.m., Feb. 7, at Jesse Auditorium.
