The Center for the Study of Race and Ethnicity in America (CSREA) at Brown University supports and generates rigorous and accessible research, performance, art, and scholarship on a broad range of pressing issues related to race and ethnicity to help build greater understanding and a more just world.
We aim to:
build community among scholars;
develop new and existing research;
hold space for transformative conversation;
enrich public knowledge about race and ethnicity;
and amplify efforts to create a more just society.
CSREA and Brown University are located in Providence, Rhode Island, on lands that are within the ancestral homelands of the Narragansett Indian Tribe. The Narragansett Indian Tribe, whose ancestors stewarded these lands with great care, continues as a sovereign nation today. We commit to working together to honor our past and build our future with truth. We encourage you to explore the ancestries present in your area, too: native-land.ca/
