Session Submission Summary

Reclaiming Racial Literacy at LRA and In Education

Fri, November 30, 8:30 to 10:00am, Renaissance Indian Wells, Floor: Terrace Level, Crystal G

Session Submission Type: Symposium

Abstract

Literacy is interwoven with racial struggles in the U.S. We, CRT scholars at LRA, believe that connecting race and literacy, racial literacy, is activist work because without our heightened alert in racial literacy, we are the condoners pushing the marginalized again and again to the bottom of the well; racial literacy must continue at LRA; and in all education system, we must foster critical consciousness, ultimately to achieve freedom, human dignity and love for ALL.
