Who am I? What is "ethnic" anyway?

Join the Center for Ethnic Studies on Friday, Nov. 4 from 12:30 - 2 PM for a spirited discussion on the definition of "ethnic." What is an ethnicity? What do we mean when we use the word "ethnic"? You'll be invited to submit all your burning questions on this hot topic, and the directors from CES (Asian American Studies, American Indian Studies, and Latinx Studies) will do their best to answer them. Lunch will be served, so don't delay in RSVPing for this informative and casual event!
This event is free and open to the public, but seats are limited and RSVP is required. RSVP here.
