Spencer Room, Derby Hall 2130

Charisse Burden-Stelly is an Associate Professor of African American Studies at Wayne State University. Her work interrogates the transnational entanglements of U.S. racial capitalism, anticommunism, and antiblack structural racism, with a second area of focus examining twentieth-century Black anticapitalist thought with a particular focus on W.E.B. Du Bois and scholar activists in his intellectual community. Dr. Burden-Stelly is co-author, with Dr. Gerald Horne, of W.E.B. Du Bois: A Life in American History, and she is currently working on a book manuscript tentatively titled Black Scare/Red Scare: Antiblackness, Anticommunism, and the Rise of Capitalism in the United States, in which she examines the rise of the United States to global hegemony between World War I and the early Cold War at the intersection of racial capitalism, Wall Street imperialism, anticommunism, and antiblackness. She also edited (with Jodi Dean), Organize, Fight, Win: Black Communist Women’s Political Writing.
