About Us
The Center for the Study of Race and Democracy is the only entity at ASU and in the state of Arizona to position race and democracy in direct relation with each other. We have a robust, deliberate, and inspired commitment to model and to sustain broadly embedded and academically rooted studies of race and democracy. The Center is known within and beyond the university for its spirited and innovative programming. Distinctive lectures, effective workshops, and meaningful collaborations are signatures of the Center.
The Center is a destination for those determined and willing to grapple with pressing issues related to education, environment, health, housing, civic discourse, public memory, law and emerging technologies of democracy. We facilitate powerful and informed dialogues through programs such as the acclaimed annual Delivering Democracy program and Social Cohesion Dialogues program, our Impact Arizona series, and the Art and Democracy series. Our programs and events feature experts and changemakers, visionary leaders and accomplished professionals who engage with and inspire our audiences.
