teaching about race  

Definición

  • As we enter the second decade of the 21st century, teaching about race is a different enterprise than 50 years ago. Conceptually, we have moved beyond early-20th-century “racial science,” where race was considered an aspect of biology and the human species was divided into five ranked subdivisions or “races.” Race is now recognized as a human invention, a social construction of historically specific practices, institutions, identities, and classifications, and an ideology for legitimizing social inequality.
