On Monday, August 7, Union’s own Dr. Sarah Azaransky will speak about her groundbreaking new book, This Worldwide Struggle: The International Roots of the Civil Rights Movement (Oxford, June 2017).

Dr. Azaransky, assistant professor of social ethics at Union, will be giving a First Monday lecture at Pendle Hill, the Quaker study, retreat, and conference center welcoming all for Spirit-led learning and community, located in Wallingford, Pennsylvania.

The August 7 lecture, scheduled from 7:30-9:00 p.m. in the Barn, is free and open to the public, with advance registration requested but not required. Live streaming will be available to registrants. A book signing will follow the lecture.

Dr. Azaransky’s latest book examines a network of black Americans who looked abroad and to other religious traditions for ideas and practices that could transform American democracy.
