The C.O.W.S. w/ Dr. Howard Stevenson: Promoting Racial Literacy

Dr. Howard Stevenson visits The Context of White Supremacy. The Constance Clayton Professor of Urban Education and Professor of Africana Studies at the University of Pennsylvania, Dr. Stevenson constructs practical strategies to teach "emotional and racial literacy skills to families and youth." His areas of expertise include: African-American psychology, racial/ethnic socialization and negotiation, racial literacy and violence prevention. We'll examine his 2014 book, Promoting Racial Literacy in Schools: Differences That Make a Difference, which provides a process to "resolve face-to-face racially stressful encounters that reflect racial profiling in public spaces, fuel social conflicts in neighborhoods, and undermine student emotional well-being and academic achievement in the classroom." A C.O.W.S. listener was recently in attendace for Dr. Stevenson's Missouri lecture and asked the professor if he thought Dr. Frances Cress Welsing's definition of White Supremacy was accurate.
