About this Event A central defining feature of deeply divided societies is binary division – "us" and "them." These binary fault lines can arise from class, caste, religion, language, race, ethnicity, clan, or political identity. These divisions breed walled communities of fear and isolation, not only dividing populations but also uniting them in their fear of the "other." Grounded in a global comparative analysis of the literal and figurative notion of "walls" in deeply divided societies, this presentation will analyze physical walls of social separation, symbolic walls of identity separation, and hidden or invisible walls of geographical separation. The presentation will conclude by emphasizing the need for more integration in deeply divided societies and suggesting specific strategies to address the physical, symbolic, and hidden or invisible walls that separate and wound the lives of people in such societies.Following the event, join us for a catered reception in the Dodd Lounge.   About the SpeakerJames Waller, Ph.D. (https://humanrights.uconn.edu/person/james-waller/), is the inaugural Christopher J.
