Allegories on “Race,” Racism, and Antiracism | Camara Phyllis Jones || Radcliffe Institute

As part of the 2019–2020 Fellows’ Presentation Series at the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study, Edo Berger RI ’20 shares the discovery of gold and other rare heavy elements being forged in a cataclysmic collision between neutron stars, which, through the emission of gravitational waves—a brand new way of sensing the universe—has recently been seen for the very first time.

Berger is a professor of astronomy at Harvard University. He is the 2019–2020 Mildred Londa Weisman Fellow at the Radcliffe Institute. https://www.radcliffe.harvard.edu/people/edo-berger
