- The 18th Annual Walter Rodney Symposium titled: "Democracy Under Duress" took place on Sunday, March 21st, 2021 from 10:00am-3:00pm EST. The Symposium explored the fragility of the democratic state and strategies for creating and protecting a true democracy. This virtual conference is presented by The Walter Rodney Foundation and the AUC Woodruff Library and featured a keynote address by Dr. Angela Y. Davis. The event highlighted Dr. Walter Rodney's and Dr. Angela Y. Davis' lives intersecting when they met at the University of Dar-es-Salaam in Tanzania and their work both grounded in historical truth, and in their commitment to human dignity, liberation, resistance, and scholar-activism. The two panel discussions covered topics of Dr. Walter Rodney, Human Rights, decolonization, imperialism, state violence, and the assassination of Walter Rodney.
