Join Education for a celebration of the publication The Culture Trap by Brandeis University Professor Derron Wallace.

The Culture Trap critically examines how culture is sometimes used as a justification for racism in schools, reinforcing racial, class, and gender inequalities in education. This event will be of particular interest to those dedicated to justice, racial equity, public education, and youth advocacy.

The celebration will include reflections from three distinguished scholars:

  • Bianca Baldridge, Harvard Graduate School of Education
  • Prudence L. Carter, Brown University
  • Reuel Rogers, Northwestern University

 

This event is cosponsored by African and African American Studies Department, Sociology Department, and Education Program.
