SUMMARY:New Books by BC Faculty Series: The Fruitfulness of Normative Concepts
DESCRIPTION:Join Associate Professor of Philosophy Professor Matthew Lindauer for a conversation on his important recent book\, The Fruitfulness of Normative Concepts. Can philosophical concepts do real work in improving our world? Should we\, when evaluating competing understandings of concepts like “justice” and “solidarity\,” take into account whether these different understandings can help us to fight injustice and promote solidarity between people? In The Fruitfulness of Normative Concepts\, Lindauer argues that the answer to both questions is an emphatic “yes.” In doing so\, it provides a bold new defense of a tight relationship between theory and practice. Drawing on cutting-edge scientific research\, the book also demonstrates that we now have the tools to evaluate the practical value of normative concepts.

SUMMARY:New Books by BC Faculty Series: Budget Justice: On Building Grassroots Politics and Solidarities
DESCRIPTION:Join Gabe Dunn\, bestselling author\, actor\, and filmmaker\, and host of the podcast “Bad With Money\,” and Professor Celina Su\, Department of Political Science\, for a conversation on racial capitalism\, coalition building\, and her book recent book\, Budget Justice. \nDrawing on her years of engagement with democratic governance in New York City and around the globe\, Su proposes in her book a new kind of democracy\, in which city residents make collective decisions about public needs through processes like participatory budgeting\, and in which they work across racial divides and segregated spaces as neighbors rather than as consumers or members of voting blocs. Essential reading to empower citizens\, Budget Justice explains why public budgets reflect a crisis not so much in accounting as in democracy\, and enables everyone\, especially those from historically marginalized communities\, to imagine and enact people’s budgets and policies—from universal preschool to affordable housing—that will enable their communities to thrive. \nRegister for the Zoom meeting

SUMMARY:New Books by BC Faculty Series: Labor Evangelicals: Faith\, Authority\, and Resistance at Work
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a conversation with Associate Professor of Political Science Ken Estey\, author of Labor Evangelicals\,  and Professor of Sociology Timothy Shortell. \nEstey’s recent book studies theologically conservative working-class evangelicals in the United States who resist the common preconception that they eagerly embrace deregulation\, unfettered markets\, and globalized capital. This book studies evangelical workers at the grassroots level to discern the complexity of their perspectives about work\, unions\, class\, and power. It shows how White and African American evangelicals think about labor in working-class communities in Bethlehem\, Pennsylvania\, and Moncure\, North Carolina. \nKen Estey\, director of the Studies in Religion Program\, centers his research on the intersection of politics and religion with a particular focus on labor and Christianity. He is also the author of A New Protestant Labor Ethic at Work. \nTimothy Shortell\, professor of data analysis and visualization at the CUNY Graduate Center\, is a computational social psychologist who studies identity and belonging using large corpus quantitative methods. His current research focuses on U.S. evangelicals and the emergence of Christian nationalism. \nFood and refreshments will be served. \nLibrary Guide with free electronic access to the book: is available here.

SUMMARY:King of the North: Martin Luther King Jr.'s Life of Struggle Outside the South—A Conversation With Author Jeanne Theoharis and Researchers David Rondeau\, Tyra Smart\, and Gabrielle White
DESCRIPTION:The Martin Luther King Jr. of popular memory vanquished Jim Crow in the South. But in this myth-shattering book\, Jeanne Theoharis argues that King’s time in Boston\, New York\, Los Angeles\, and Chicago was at the heart of his campaign for racial justice. King of the North follows the Kings as they come of age in school in the North and as he crisscrosses the country from the Northeast to the West Coast\, challenging school segregation\, police brutality\, housing segregation\, and job discrimination. For these efforts\, he was relentlessly attacked by white liberals\, the federal government\, and the national media. \nJoin us on for a conversation on King of the North—particularly focused on how the nation’s flagship print media covered King’s work outside the South—with Jeanne Theoharis and three of her research assistants for the book\, Brooklyn College graduates David Rondeau\, Tyra Smart\, and Gabrielle White\, who helped her document this media story.
