Susan Harding: "Secular Trouble: Anthropology, Public Schools, and De/regulating Religion in late 20th Century America"
April 23, 2014 @ 12:00 pm - 1:30 pm | Stevenson Fireside Lounge
Susan Harding
Professor of Anthropology, UCSC
Susan Harding’s recent work explores the nexus of secularism, Christian revivalism, Civil Rights, and decolonialization as they imploded in the controversy over a federally funded elementary school curriculum in Anthropology. She reads the curriculum as a national secularizing project that triggered Christian efforts to regulate secularism.
