Dr Gavan Titley, Maynooth University, Ireland will present his new book Racism and Media and talk on what he terms the debatability of racism. The talk suggests that this debatability, this incessant, recursive attention as to what counts as racism and who gets to define it, has political consequences for practices of antiracism - practices that want to name racism publicly, the better to mobilize to confront it.
