Week 3: Background and Introduction to CRT (Part 2)

Dr. Dorinda Carter Andrews discusses the consciousness gap in education and why we need to consider race, oppression, and privilege in the U.S. educational system. Race is a factor in all areas of our lives and education is one of the main pieces that need continued examination and critique. Her talk has great examples of inequity and critical self-reflection.

Think of Dr. Andrews’s talk in the frame of why we are talking about CRT in education. What have you learned from the CRT defining readings that we’ve had in class thus far that relates to her talk? Compare and contrast Tate’s implications with Dr. Andrews’ presentation. Are their points that she makes that aren’t considered in the readings?
