ESS 33620 - Race and Ethnicity in Public Education, 1848-2004

Institution:

University of Notre Dame

Subject:

Education

Description:

This course is motivated by two key questions: "Does the prevailing distribution of literacy conform to standards of social justice?" and "What social and educational policies might promote such standards?" These questions will guide our study of urban schooling since the landmark case; Brown v. Board Of Education (1954,1955) initiated a move toward the desegregation of schools in the US. We will examine the contemporary scene of urban schooling, particularly the intersections of poverty, race, and culture. This is an education-focused course.
