A Family Action Network (FAN) Program
Dr. CLAUDE STEELE
Monday, December 8
7 pm, Evanston Township High School Auditorium
1600 Dodge Ave. Evanston
Acclaimed social psychologist Dr. Claude Steele, a Vice Chancellor and Provost of the University of California at Berkeley, speaks on the subject of his book Whistling Vivaldi: How Stereotypes Affect Us and What We Can Do.
Also chosen as the 2014-15 "One Book One Northwestern University"
selection, the book centers around his groundbreaking research on group
identity and the ways in which stereotypes can undermine the performance
of the people they target.
Note: Dr. Steele will also present two follow-up workshops, titled "Identity as a Bridge Between Us," on Tuesday, December 9, at the Evanston Public Library: one workshop from 9-10:30 am and another from 7-8:30 pm. All programs are free and open to the public, but an RSVP for either workshop is required by clicking here.
