Event Details


Join Dr. Régine for a thought-provoking panel on Haitian Women’s Political Thought alongside scholars Grace Sanders Johnson and Bianca Dang, moderated by Fatoumata Seck.

The third annual Caribbean Studies Symposium (CSS) at Stanford University will take place virtually on May 17-18, 2023 in honor of Haitian Flag Day (May 18). Organized by the graduate student-led Caribbean Studies Reading Group since 2021, CSS encourages intellectual engagement with the Caribbean region in West Coast academic spaces by inviting visiting scholars to present their research and ideas to the Stanford community. 

This year, will commemorate the legacy of Caribbean Studies scholar Sylvia Wynter, who taught at Stanford from 1977 to 1997 and served as chair of the Program in African & African American Studies. Honoring this 50-year legacy of Caribbean thought emerging from our intellectual community, the CSS theme for 2023 focuses on “Caribbean Epistemologies.”
