The ISRST Review: Reflections on Race and Social Thought (II)
Issue II, January 2008

One of the missions of the Institute for the Study of Race and Social Thought is to provide forums for research on race and racism.  The addition of “social thought” is to stress our preference for scholarship that make connections between race and other facets of social life. The purpose of the ISRST Review is to provide a forum in which Temple undergraduates, graduate students, and faculty could meet in dialogue on this important subject.

Paul Taylor
Director
