Lecture: Why Race, Culture and Trauma Matter

October 5, 2017 - 4:00pm to 6:00pm

The Center for Urban Education is hosting its fall edition of #CUEtalks with guest speaker Tyrone Howard from University of California, Los Angeles. His talk is titled "Why Race, Culture & Trauma Matter: Addressing Real Equity for Marginalized Populations."

In this talk, Howard will address the increasing complexities in today’s schools contexts, and how issues of race, culture and trauma remain salient. Focusing specifically on how schools often miss the mark with regard to engaging students in teaching and learning, Howard offers a complex and nuanced account of how today’s student populations require a more humanistic, race-conscious, and culturally caring approach to education.
