ISPS SPECIAL COSPONSORED EVENT

Please join us for this special luncheon event with guest author Hahrie Han as she discusses her new book, Undivided: The Quest for Racial Solidarity in an American Church (Penquin Random House, 2024).  The panel event will feature Han in conversation with two Yale faculty members with expertise in race, religion, and American politics: Daniel HoSang (Political Science and American Studies) and Yii-Jan Lin (Yale Divinity School).  The event will be moderated by Yale Professor of History Deborah Coen.  Lunch will be served.

RSVP AT THIS LINK by Friday, February 14th to reserve lunch.

Han’s book has won rave reviews from The New York Times (one of their top 100 books of 2024), The New Yorker, and many other critics.  It is a moving, accessible, and sharply analyzed study that tells an inspiring story of evangelicals in Cincinnati struggling to bridge racial divides in their own church, their community, and across the nation.  Han argues for the importance of religion as a force for progressive politics in the United States today.  As in all her work in political science, Han emphasizes the importance of grassroots organizing.

Cosponsored by Yale’s Institution for Social and Policy Studies (ISPS) and the Yale Divinity School.
