Discussion Questions

• In On Being the Object of Property, Williams
  explores issues of race and our responses to
  racial divides. In the webcast of Williams, how
  does she similarly problematize the place of
  minorities in law?
• What does the close of Williamss essay mean?
  Does her demonization of the white man make him
  unredeemable? Or, contrastingly, forgivable?
• On Being the Object of Property, Williams
  spends the majority of the essay identifying
  problems in race relations and underlying causes.
  What types of offerings does Williams make in
  the webcast about research practices, which serve
  to supplement the essay?
