Scholar Soiree Series - Rev. B. Yuki Schwartz, PhD

  • Claremont Presbyterian Church 1111 North Mountain Avenue Claremont, CA, 91711 (map)

The Adult Education Forum is pleased to present the Scholar Soiree Series al fresco. You are invited to bring a blanket or folding chair, and picnic dinner and hear from a different local scholar each night as they share a bit about their doctoral research and studies in the warm late afternoon foothill breeze of the summer evening.

Tonight we hear from Rev. B. Yuki Schwartz, PhD. Yuki Schwartz (they/them) is associate dean of academics and assessment, and assistant professor of constructive and political theologies at Claremont School of Theology. They are also an ordained minister in the United Church of Christ, and a current Louisville Institute Postdoctoral Scholar. Their scholarship examines the politics of emotions and theological imagination under systems of oppression and repression, with a focus on resistance against anti-Asian racism and that movement's intersectional solidarities. Yuki, their partner, Clint, and cat, Pawli, just moved to Claremont from the Pacific Northwest and are looking forward to exploring what Southern California has to offer.
