Racism and Repair at and beyond Johns Hopkins University

Over the past three years, research teams funded by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation and composed of leading experts have been excavating how academic departments in the medical sciences, social sciences, and humanities at Johns Hopkins University both created racist forms of knowledge and expertise and were reshaped by anti-racist and desegregation struggles in the twentieth century.

Join us for a symposium that will mark the first public presentation of the findings of these research teams.
