Black, Philosophy of Education/Precollegiate Philosophy, Critical Environmental/Ecological Justice, Utilitarian Studies, and Philosophy of Social Science. Publications Books: Utilitarianism as a Way of Life: Re-envisioning Planetary Happiness (Cambridge, UK: Polity Books, forthcoming 2024). This book draws on the work of prominent recent utilitarian or consequentialist philosophers (especially Peter Singer, Katarzyna de Lazari-Radek, and Derek Parfit) in an effort to decolonize and de-center the utilitarian framework and re-envision it as a support to lifestyles and activisms associated with ecocentric, global approaches to environmental and ecological justice. The familiar philosophical trajectory from Bentham to Singer is examined from the perspectives of critical race theory, critical race studies, postcolonial and decolonization studies, in order to explore utilitarian filiations in forms of cultural resistance to the forces of settler colonialism, colonialism, imperialism, and extractivist capitalism. Editor/Contributor, The Classical Utilitarians: Essential Readings (Peterborough, Ontario: Broadview Press, forthcoming 2024). This selection of works from the Classical Utilitarians will reflect new critical perspectives on their legacy and highlight a wide range of issues, including not only such familiar topics as philosophical hedonism and egoism versus altruism, but also such timely matters as non-anthropocentrism, gender, racism, colonialism, settler colonialism, and imperialism. Editor, Sacred Ground: The Chicago Streets of Timuel Black, by Timuel D. Black, with Susan Klonsky (Evanston, IL: Northwestern University Press, 2018). The long-awaited memoir of Prof. Timuel D. Black, educator, oral historian, civil rights activist, and the Senior Statesman of Chicago’s South Side. See Sacred Ground: The Chicago Streets of Timuel D. Black This book was featured on Chicago Tonight, listed in the Semcoop Notable Books of 2018, and placed as one of the top five finalists for the best non-fiction book of 2019 by the Chicago Review of Books. It was also featured in a review by Norman Stockwell in The Progressive and has been extensively reviewed elsewhere: Suzanne Hanney, Timuel Black; Kelwin Harris, Venerable Man-Timuel Black, Elder Statesman of Black Chicago; Alex Bean, Visit Timuel Black's Sacred Ground During Black History Month; Gerald Butters, A Review of Sacred Ground by Timuel Black; J.D.

For accounts of how this book captures the history and work of the Civic Knowledge Project, see Bart Schultz, "Seeing Backward to Look Ahead," Journal of Political Theory and Philosophy and VoyageChicago: Meet Bart Schultz from the University of Chicago Civic Knowledge Project The Happiness Philosophers: The Lives and Works of the Great Utilitarians (Princeton: Princeton University Press, 2017). This book, one of CHOICE’s Outstanding Academic Titles for 2017, provides an original interpretation of the philosophers, social critics and reformers William Godwin and Mary Wollstonecraft, Jeremy Bentham, John Stuart and Harriet Taylor Mill, and Henry and Eleanor Balfour Sidgwick. By exploring the historical contexts and human sides of these remarkable pioneers of utilitarianism, it yields a richer understanding and appreciation of their philosophical and political perspectives. By resisting overly reductive or narrow accounts of the meaning of utilitarianism, this historical reconstruction can also help explain why classical utilitarianism is experiencing a renaissance today and again being used to tackle some of the world’s most serious problems.

Winner of the American Philosophical Society's Jacques Barzun Prize in Cultural History for 2004. This is the only work that surveys the whole of Sidgwick's philosophy, bringing out both its underlying unity and its unresolved tensions. This book considers both the historical context of Sidgwick's work and its philosophical and cultural significance, with special reference to the ways in which his life and work interacted with those of John Addington Symonds, a pioneer of gay studies, and to the problematic racist and imperialist dimensions of utilitarianism.

Designed and implemented a philosophy/public ethics program for local elementary/middle/high school students on Chicago’s mid-South Side, which has involved recruiting and training a significant number of University of Chicago students to serve as instructors in the program. Using theater games, creative artistic and writing exercises, and background readings in philosophy, the original “Winning Words Precollegiate Philosophy Program” covered a wide range of philosophically and pedagogically relevant verbal arts, from Socratic conversation to poetry to formal rhetoric and public speaking. It addressed such substantive topics as ethical reflection, reason, justice, rights, happiness, non-violence, education, democracy, and the good life. Students learned basic elements of the Socratic method, the educational philosophy of John Dewey, the philosophy of non-violence practiced by Mahatma Gandhi and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., and feminist philosophy, with curricula emphasizing diversity and inclusion. Regularly offered at 10-12 sites, this was a major pre-collegiate philosophy program and one of the few in the U.S. being offered in underserved urban areas. Winning Words has been featured at The Chicago Wilderness Consortium’s Annual Conference (2008) and the American Philosophical Association’s Central Division meetings (2012), and it was a major part of the Chicago-based regional resource center for advancing pre-collegiate philosophy, the Winning Words Initiative. Winning Words co-hosted the 2017 Philosophy Learning and Teaching Organization conference on “Social Justice and Pre-College Philosophy: Where Do We Go from Here?” Winning Words also co-organized and hosted the Chicago Regional Ethics Bowl Tournament. In recent years, the program has evolved in various respects, placing a heavier emphasis on history and civics.
