SUMMARY:O.N. Pruitt's Possum Town: Photographing Trouble and Resilience in The American South
DESCRIPTION:This event is a traveling multimedia exhibition that reveals life in northeast Mississippi based on the photography of O.N. Pruitt. From 1915 to 1960\, Pruitt\, a white man in a racially segregated society\, recorded community celebrations as well as troubling violence. His work is distinguished from others of his time by his diligent and prolific depictions of the joys and sorrows of everyday people—both Black and white—in his hometown of Columbus\, locally referred to as “Possum Town.”

SUMMARY:White Privilege: Nonconscious Racism\, Freud\, and Neuroscience of Implicit Bias
DESCRIPTION:Millsaps College – Christian Center\, Jackson\, MS \nTo what extent is white cultural domination nonconscious\, and in what sense? How do neuroscience ideas of nonconscious racism\, and ideas of Freud fit in?
