Our theme, “Medical Apartheid Revisited: Pandemic, Politics, and Priorities” explores the ethical implications of the coronavirus pandemic for racialized minorities who are experiencing disproportionately higher rates of death from this pandemic. We want to tease through how scholars, clergy, organizers, activists, students, and concerned citizens can build ethical solutions that involve empathy, transparency, expertise, and commitment. Here at Vanderbilt Divinity School, we see these issues as not only social issues, but also theological, moral, and spiritual issues that we must address through the lens of faith. We invite you to join as we explore the importance of our theme in relation to your local community so that we can make our voices heard on the local and national levels. We will do so by combining spiritual, intellectual, and strategic growth with a sense of social justice and the formation of a new generation of justice-seekers. I welcome you in this spirit as we gather over these three days of themed panels, an infusion of the arts, time for spiritual reflection, and powerful keynotes to look to the past, examine the present, and build for the future. These are exciting and vexing times to take up our common work to fight for a vibrant democracy! Emilie M. Townes Director, Public Theology and Racial Justice Collaborative Dean and E. Rhodes and Leona B. Carpenter Professor of Womanist Ethics and Society Vanderbilt University Divinity School PUBLIC THEOLOGY AND // FEATURED SPEAKERS RACIAL JUSTICE COLLABORATIVE 0 6 FEATURED SPEAKER HARRIET A. WASHINGTON As a medical ethicist, Harriet Washington has a unique and courageous voice and deconstructs the politics around medical issues. In addition to giving an abundance of historically accurate information on ‘scientific racism’, she paints a powerful and disturbing portrait of medicine, race, sex, and the abuse of power by telling individual human stories. Washington also makes the case for broader political consciousness of science and technology, challenging audiences to see the world differently and challenge established paradigms in the history of medicine. Harriet Washington is an award-winning medical writer and editor, and the author of the best-selling book, Medical Apartheid: The Dark History of Medical Experimentation on Black Americans from Colonial Times to the Present. In her work, she focuses mainly upon bioethics, history of medicine, African American health issues and the intersection of medicine, ethics and culture. Medical Apartheid, the first social history of medical research with African Americans, was chosen as one of Publishers’ Weekly Best Books of 2006. The book also won the National Book Critics Circle Nonfiction Award, a PEN award, 2007 Gustavus Myers Award, and Nonfiction Award of the Black Caucus of the American Library Association. It has been praised in periodicals from the Washington Post and Newsweek to Psychiatric Services, the Economist, Social History of Medicine and the Times of London and it has been excerpted in the New York Academy of Sciences’ Update. Experts have praised its scholarship, accuracy and insights. Medical Apartheid was the #1 best-seller in medical ethics on Amazon. In her latest book, Infectious Madness, Washington looks at the connection between germs and mental illness, revealing that schizophrenia, obsessive-compulsive disorder, Alzheimer's, and anorexia also may be caused by bacteria, parasites, or viruses. Weaving together cutting-edge research and case studies, Washington demonstrates how strep throat can trigger rapid-onset OCD in a formerly healthy teen and how contact with cat litter elevates the risk of schizophrenia. Infectious Madness was released in October 2015. PUBLIC THEOLOGY AND // FEATURED SPEAKERS RACIAL JUSTICE COLLABORATIVE 0 7 FEATURED SPEAKER HARRIET A. WASHINGTON Washington wrote Medical Apartheid while she was a Research Fellow in Ethics at Harvard Medical School. She has worked as a Page One editor for USA Today, as a science editor for metropolitan dailies and several national magazines, and her award-winning medical writing. Her work has appeared in Health, Emerge and Psychology Today, as well as such academic publications as the Harvard Public Health Review, the Harvard AIDS Review, Nature, The Journal of the American Medical Association, The American Journal of Public Health and the New England Journal of Medicine. Her awards include the Congressional Black Caucus Beacon of Light Award, two awards from the National Association of Black Journalists and a Unity Award from Emerge. She is the founding Editor of The Harvard Journal of Minority Public Health and has presented her work at universities in the U.S. and abroad. In her book, Deadly Monopolies: The Shocking Corporate Takeover of Life Itself, Washington takes an in depth, eye-opening look at the 40,000+ patents on human genes and their harmful, even lethal, consequences on public health. Her other books include, Parkinson’s Disease, a monograph published by Harvard Health Publications, Living Healthy with Hepatitis C and she is co-author of Health and Healing for African Americans. Ms. Washington has taught at venues that include New School University, SUNY, the Rochester Institute of Technology, University of Rochester, Harvard School of Public Health and Tuskegee University. She has sat on the boards of many organizations, including The Young Women’s Christian Association, the School Health Advisory Board of the Monroe County Department of Health and the Journal of the National Medical Association, to name a few.

  • Building the Future Dennis Keller and His Landmark $20 Million Gift to the School
    FALL/WINTER 2014 America’s Hidden Hunger Crisis Behavioral Insights and Parenting Lab Measuring Chicago’s Creative Economy THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO HARRIS SCHOOL OF PUBLIC POLICY BUILDING THE FUTURE DENNIS KELLER AND HIS LANDMARK $20 MILLION GIFT TO THE SCHOOL PLUS: DAVID AXELROD ON THE 2015 U.K. ELECTIONS LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT AND PROVOST The Harris School of Public Policy embodies many of the values that make the University of Chicago distinct. The school’s interdisciplinary and data-driven approach to policy analysis reflects the University’s culture of rigorous inquiry, and faculty and student engagement with the City of Chicago and other urban centers demonstrates the impact of research on societal challenges in education, crime, energy and other fields. These efforts draw scholars and practitioners to campus to exchange ideas and learn. Because the school stands at the intersection of so many import- ant ideas, we recognized that its next dean would need to build on these existing strengths and think creatively about public policy scholarship and education. We wanted a leader who could work with scholars across the University and engage with business, political and civic leaders in Chicago and beyond to ensure that the school influences major policy debates. Robert J. Zimmer Eric D. Isaacs We found such a person in Daniel Diermeier, who started his tenure as dean on September 1. Dean Diermeier, previously the IBM Professor of Regulation and Competitive Practice at Northwestern University’s Kellogg School of Management, is an internationally recognized scholar of political institutions, formal political theory and the interaction of business and politics.

Econometrica, Vol. 85, No. 3 (May, 2017), 851–870 POLITICAL ECONOMY OF REDISTRIBUTION BY DANIEL DIERMEIER,GEORGY EGOROV, AND KONSTANTIN SONIN1 It is often argued that additional constraints on redistribution such as granting veto power to more players in society better protects property from expropriation. We use a model of multilateral bargaining to demonstrate that this intuition may be flawed. Increasing the number of veto players or raising the supermajority requirement for redistribution may reduce protection on the equilibrium path. The reason is the ex- istence of two distinct mechanisms of property protection.
