Join us for the Damon J. Keith Center Biennial Lecture "Cultivating Radical Imagination: Rethinking the Role of Institutional Power in Detroit and Beyond” Featuring Dr. Lester Spence on Thursday, November 13, 2025, from 6:00 PM to 9:00 PM at Wayne State University Law School – Partrich Auditorium, 471 W. Palmer, Detroit, Michigan 48202, United States. Dr. Lester Spence, Professor of Political Science and Africana Studies at Johns Hopkins University, will explore how institutions shape social, political, and economic life in Detroit and other urban centers, and how radical imagination can challenge conventional structures of power toward radical democratic renewal. This thought-provoking lecture invites students, scholars, and community members to rethink the possibilities of institutional influence and civic engagement. Food will be served, and parking is available on Cass and in the structure directly across from the Law School.
