EDUC 245 - African American Education and Schooling
This course examines the education and schooling experience for African Americans from the 17th century to present day. It will look at schooling within a social, political, cultural, and economic context. It will explore how the purpose of education for African Americans changed over time and how education was used as a tool of resistance and liberation. Finally, this course will look at how education legislation, curriculum and high stakes testing impact academic achievement for African American children and often function as a means of stratification rather than education.
