A joint talk by journalist Robert Jensen and South End Press member Alexander Dwinell.
Start: 8:00 pm

"Mistaken Identities: Nation/Race/Gender"
A discussion with Robert Jensen of the themes in his last three books

• Getting Off: Pornography and the End of Masculinity, South End Press, 2007.
• The Heart of Whiteness: Confronting Race, Racism and White Privilege, City
Lights Books, 2005.
• Citizens of the Empire: The Struggle to Claim Our Humanity, City Lights
Books, 2004.

In these books, Jensen examines how nation, race, and gender affect our
understanding of ourselves, with a focus on the unjust systems of power and
privilege in which they are embedded. In each case he argues against the
dominant culture's ideology and for a politics of liberation.

Jensen is a journalism professor at the University of Texas at Austin and board
member of the Third Coast Activist Resource Center
