“After all, it’s only an animal”

A warm invitation to Prof. Dr. Jay Geller's presentation on “After all, it’s only an animal”: Antisemitism, Racism, and the Human-Animal Great Divide on 16 October, 4:15 pm CEST. The presentation is part of the Joseph C. Miller Memorial Lecture Series and organized by the Bonn Center for Dependency and Slavery Studies.

In his presentation, Jay Geller (Vanderbilt University, USA) will attend to the ascription (and manufacture) of animality that enacted the subordination or marginalization of “the Jew” and the dominance of the Gentile and similarly functioned with regard to a racially-identified group, people of predominantly sub-Saharan African descent (blacks), and the corresponding race-identifying group, people of predominantly European descent (whites).
