SUMMARY:The 2026 Alchemy Lecture: ScALE
DESCRIPTION:The Canada Research Chair in Black Studies in the Humanities, the Faculty of Liberal Arts & Professional Studies, and York University are proud to be hosting the Fifth Annual Alchemy Lecture, ScALE. The Alchemy Lecture is a multi-vocal, multi-modal, model that annually brings together a constellation of thinkers and practitioners from different disciplines and geographies to think together and in public on the most pressing issues of our times. Each lecture culminates in the publication of a book bearing the title of that year’s convening in the imprint, headed by Dionne Brand, Alchemy by Knopf. Along with the inclusion of an introduction, each book extends the public lecture and builds on its alchemical form. These lectures (and the book that will result from them) speak into the interregnum of precipitous climate catastrophe and social and political reckoning. \nThe previous lectures, including last year’s Sound—at the Interregnum, are available for purchase from the York University Book Store in the lobby. The book from this year’s lecture will be published in September 2027 and will be available for purchase then and at next year’s lecture. \nRegister (In Person)\nRegister (Online)\n
