THE 5TH ANNUAL NEW COLLEGE CONFERENCE
RACISM AND NATIONAL CONSCIOUSNESS
Saturday October 28, 2006 10 am – 5 om
Wetmore Hall 21 Classic Avenue at Spadina
New College, University of Toronto
Theme:
“National Security and the Treatment of Difference”
This conference for the past four years has attracted over 300 each year – scholars, students, activists, writers, lawyers, community and cultural workers from a wide spectrum of interests. This year our concern is with the threat to freedom of expression in the current war on terror and the criminalization of people who are deemed “different”. The conference is free and open to all. Lunch will be provided. Please register well ahead of the date so we can cater for lunch for everyone. To register email the programs secretary at NC.programs@utoronto.ca or call 416-978-5404.
Some of the issues:
Democracy and state terrorism – Muslim identity in Western construction, ie. “moderate” “extremist” “terrorist” – national security, official racism and the threat to difference – the threat to the tenure of scholars and others who speak out
