Critical Race Studies Symposium

About the CRS Symposium

Launched in 2007 through a collaboration of Critical Race Studies students and faculty, the CRS Symposium has become the signature event of UCLA School of Law’s Critical Race Studies Program. Each symposium brings together scholars, advocates, and community members to highlight the most innovative ideas and strategies for advancing racial justice, to foster collaboration across disciplines, and to bridge racial justice theory with practice.
