Chaired by Rebecca Whiteley, in this reading group we’ll be engaging with Robin Bernstein’s concept of ‘scriptive things’ by reading extracts from her Racial Innocence: Performing American Childhood from Slavery to the Civil Rights (New York, 2011). We will primarily focus on Chapter 2, but we’ll also circulate the introduction for your reference.

 Everyone one very welcome!
