In celebration of Banned Books Week, the FIU Libraries’ Academic & Intellectual Freedom Committee is hosting a discussion on academic freedom and labor in the United States. Our panel consists of FIU faculty members Dr. Ronald Cox (Political Science), Dr. Katie Rainwater (Global and Sociocultural Studies), and Dr. Terrence Peterson (History). Associate Librarian Christopher Jimenez will lead a civil discussion exploring labor movements in the U.S., focusing on the impact of academic freedom on the development of labor policy and the building of political power.
