Bio:
Tim Wise is Senior Fellow at the African American Policy Forum, and is among the most prominent anti-racist writers and educators in the United States. He has spent the past 30 years speaking to audiences throughout North America, on over 1700 college and high school campuses, and at hundreds of professional and academic conferences.
Wise is the author of nine books, including his latest essay collection, Dispatches from the Race War, and his highly-acclaimed memoir, White Like Me: Reflections on Race from a Privileged Son. Wise has contributed chapters or essays to dozens of additional books and his essays have appeared in The Washington Post, Alternet, Salon, Politico, The Huffington Post and The Root, among other popular, professional and scholarly journals.
From 1999-2003, Wise was an advisor to the Fisk University Race Relations Institute, in Nashville, and in the early ’90s he was Youth Coordinator and Associate Director of the Louisiana Coalition Against Racism and Nazism: the largest of the many groups organized for the purpose of defeating Neo-Nazi political candidate, David Duke.
Wise appears regularly on CNN and MSNBC to discuss race issues and has been featured on Nightline, CBS Sunday Morning, 20/20 and 48 Hours, among other national news programs. He graduated from Tulane University in 1990 and received antiracism training from the People’s Institute for Survival and Beyond, in New Orleans.
