What responsibility does academia have to social justice? How is academia implicated in the history of white supremacy and anti-blackness? How does it continue to uphold racism and colonialism? The Ebony Tower: Racial Justice Podcast explores these questions through a series of daring conversations with Columbia University faculty, students, and community leaders. Each episode examines race and racism across academic departments, the nexus between power and the production of knowledge, and ways in which the discipline can take actionable steps to end complicity and usher in racial equity. Ebony Tower is a student-led initiative nested within the Columbia School of Social Work Action Lab for Social Justice.
