2026 Annual Public Lecture: Robin D.G.Kelley Freedom Dreaming in Dark Times
2026 Annual Public Lecture: Robin D.G.Kelley Freedom Dreaming in Dark Times
We are honored to welcome Robin D. G. Kelley, a leading historian of social movements, cultural politics, and the Black radical imagination, for our annual public lecture. Kelley’s work explores how communities have struggled for freedom, how protest movements take shape, and how imagining new futures is itself a powerful form of resistance. His scholarship connects history to the present moment, offering tools to better understand protest, democracy, and the possibilities of social change—making his work especially relevant today.
This year’s lecture will feature Robin D. G. Kelley in conversation with Adom Getachew, Chair of Race, Diaspora & Indigeneity and Professor of Political Science at the University of Chicago. Together, they will engage in a dynamic dialogue on freedom dreaming, political struggle, and the global dimensions of Black intellectual and activist traditions.
This event is co-sponsored by International House.
CoSponsors: The University of Chicago Forum for Free Inquiry and Expression, The Center for Middle Eastern Studies, The Martin Marty Center for the Public Understanding of Religion, AAUP, The Pozen Center for Human Rights, The Office of the Provost, The Department of Race, Diaspora, and Indigeneity

ROOTS UNBOUND: RETURNING OUR STORIES TO US
A Discussion about Adoption and Racial Healing
A Discussion about Adoption and Racial Healing featuring Dr. Gina Samuels - University of Chicago Professor and Director of the Roots Unbound Black Adoption Project - alongside performer and artist Gabriel Gutierrez The evening will showease poetry and visual art from local Illinois adoptees in Roots Unbound, alongside dance by Gabriel Gutierrez: a Chicago native, adult adoptee, reconnecting P'urhépecha Native, and founder of MOFundamentals, the only foster and adoptee-led dance program in the United States.

THE CORONER’S SILENCE
THE CORONER’S SILENCE
In this talk Professor Terence Keel will discuss his new book, The Coroner’s Silence: Death Records and the Hidden Victims of Police Violence. Through rigorous research–including critical records analysis, public health studies, and interviews with victims’ families–the book unmasks the systemic failures within forensic medicine. Keel shows how incomplete autopsy reports, mishandled medical documents, and strategically lost evidence effectively shield law enforcement from accountability. The Coroner’s Silence uncovers how the current system of death investigation operates as a mechanism of institutional safeguarding. By highlighting the structural powerlessness of coroners and their disconnection from the communities most affected by police violence, Keel demonstrates how bureaucratic processes can render human suffering invisible. Forcing us to confront and reimagine how we investigate, document, and understand deaths at the hands of state institutions, The Coroner’s Silence is a crucial intervention that challenges us to contend with the deeply ingrained mechanisms that perpetuate systemic violence.
Terence Keel is an award-winning Professor of Human Biology & Society, and African American Studies at the University of California, Los Angeles. He has written widely about race, religion, life science, law, and democracy. Keel is the Founding Director of the Lab for BioCritical Studies—an interdisciplinary space committed to studying the interactions of society and human biology. Keel also serves as the Advisor for Structural Competency and Innovation within the UCLA David Geffen School of Medicine. In addition to The Coroner’s Silence, Keel is also the author of Divine Variations: How Christian Thought Became Racial Science and co-editor of Critical Approaches to Science and Religion.

He also examines how political education, collective study, and community organizing have long shaped movements for liberation.

From the River to the Sea to Every Mountain Top: Solidarity as Worldmaking
Join us for a part two of our conversation series where we discuss an essay by historian and scholar Robin D. G. Kelley. The essay explores the historical roots and political meaning of Black–Palestinian solidarity. Challenging the idea that solidarity is based solely on shared identity or analogy, Kelley traces connections to the global anti-imperialist movements of the late 1960s and the broader struggle to imagine new worlds rooted in liberation and justice.
This conversation is part of our pre-reading discussion series leading up to our annual public lecture. Participants will reflect on the essay’s key themes, consider the history of international solidarity movements, and engage in collective dialogue about what it means to build principled alliances in the present.

More Beautiful, More Terrible at the University of Illinois Urbana Champaign
More Beautiful, More Terrible: Humans of Life Row is a counter narrative, a sustained act of resistance, an exhibition that reveals the intimate experiences, transformative ideas, and beautiful dreams of people facing the stark realities of life and de facto life sentencing in Illinois. These sentences are commonly described as death by incarceration because they condemn people to confinement until their death. Nevertheless, as contributing artist, Reginald BoClair, states, “Though sentenced to die in prison, we are alive.”
Through personal narratives, artistic expressions, compelling installations, and poetic verse, this exhibition shines a light on the people who inhabit 'life row.'
The U of I exhibition features select works from the original Chicago exhibition along with artistic works and programming from Project 9161— an initiative led by Dr. Rachel McMillian in the College of Education (UIUC) that explores the world of Afrofuturism, visionary narratives, and abolition through the lenses of Black system-impacted scholars.
More Beautiful, More Terrible was originally created by the Prison + Neighborhood Arts/Education Project's Think Tank (at Stateville Prison) and the Beyond Prisons Initiative in 2023-2024. It was co-curated and co-organized by Alice Kim and Aaron Hughes.

Remembering a Legend : Karen Lewis, with Elizabeth Todd Breland
In 2012, Karen Lewis led the Chicago Teachers Union to a historic strike, challenging the city’s powerful mayor and paving the way for an unprecedented wave of teacher strikes in the decade that followed.
But Lewis’s life took her in rich and surprising directions long before she landed in the CTU President’s office. I Didn’t Come Here to Lie, written in collaboration with historian and education expert Elizabeth Todd-Breland, tells Lewis’s story in full for the first time, capturing her lively wit, her charisma, and her commitment to building the schools and communities teachers, students, and families deserve.
From her childhood on Chicago’s South Side to her teen years organizing Black Power walkouts, from her education at Mount Holyoke and Dartmouth to her years in Oklahoma and Barbados and her stints in medical school and film school, readers follow Lewis through a life full of exploration. Wherever she was, she maintained a strong commitment to building fairness. She found her calling in the classroom, teaching science for more than twenty years before becoming a union leader in Chicago.
Up until her untimely death from brain cancer in 2021, Karen Lewis was spirited, unshakeable, and fierce. She remains a model for current organizers and teachers doing the day-to-day work of building a better world. I Didn’t Come Here to Lie is a testament to one of the true revolutionaries of her generation.
