Leadership Talk: We Are the Leaders We Have Been Looking For
Eddie S. Glaude, Jr., PhD, in conversation with Lisa L. Moore, PhD, LICSW
Friday, April 26, 2024
12:30 - 2:00pm (Doors open at 12:00pm)
Join the Crown Family School of Social Work, Policy, and Practice in a Spring Leadership Talk where you can explore our new Social Sector Leadership (SSL) and Non-Profit Management program while engaging in a compelling conversation with one of the nation’s preeminent scholars and a New York Times bestselling author, Eddie S. Glaude Jr., PhD, who is the James S. McDonnell Distinguished University Professor of African American Studies at Princeton University. This Leadership Talk is in collaboration with Family Action Network (FAN)
In his new book, "We Are the Leaders We Have Been Looking For," Glaude makes the case that the hard work of becoming a better person should be a critical feature of Black politics. Through virtuoso interpretations of Martin Luther King, Jr., Malcolm X, and Ella Baker, Dr. Glaude will show how ordinary people can be the heroes that our democracy so desperately requires rather than outsourcing their needs to leaders who purportedly represent them.

Eddie S. Glaude, Jr., PhD, is the author of several books, including Democracy in Black and the New York Times bestseller Begin Again: James Baldwin’s America and Its Urgent Lessons for Our Own, winner of the Harriet Beecher Stowe Book Prize. He frequently appears in the media as an MSNBC contributor on programs like Morning Joe and Deadline: White House.
In his writing and speaking, Glaude is an American critic in the tradition of James Baldwin and Ralph Waldo Emerson, confronting history and bringing our nation’s complexities, vulnerabilities and hope into full view. Hope that is, in one of his favorite quotes from W.E.B. Du Bois, "not hopeless, but a bit unhopeful."
