Entitled “Transgression,” the weeklong residency runs from October 3-10 and features a series of public dialogues and student workshops with leading public intellectuals. "Transgression" coincides with the 20th anniversary of the 1994 publication of hooks' seminal book, Teaching to Transgress: Education as the Practice of Freedom (Routledge).
