Description

This event took place as a Zoom webinar. A video recording is available at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rV9H7MCwcAM&t=11s Fresh off large election wins, Boris Johnson and his Conservative Party colleagues are moving forward with Brexit after years of debate over its economic and social consequences. Largely forgotten in the rush for Brexit is the Republic of Ireland which held its own election on February 9. The 1998 Good Friday Agreement introduced twenty years of relative peace after generations grew up with the searing violence and mayhem known as “the troubles.” Will Brexit shatter the peace and reopen the venomous hatreds? The event will be moderated by MPR arts and culture reporter Euan Kerr. Desmond King is the Andrew W Mellon Professor of American government at Nuffield College at Oxford University. He specializes in the study of racial inequality in the United States, as well as Federal Reserve policy and US immigration policy. King is both a fellow of the British Academy, as well as a member of the Royal Irish Academy. Euan Kerr is an arts and culture reporter for MPR News. He is an editor at American Public Media and was previously the news director at KFAI Radio. He was also a reporter for BBC radio in his native Scotland.
