このコンテンツについて
Join an expert on the intersections of media, race, and politics to understand and unravel our nation’s current racial realities using the tools of social science.
One in five Americans names race relations the most important problem facing the country. In this revelatory 15-lecture audio course, you’ll learn how social science can help you understand the attitudes, actions, and outcomes associated with race in America. Your guide, acclaimed Colgate University sociology professor Alicia Simmons, shows you how social scientists interpret various problems associated with race in the contemporary US.
You’ll explore racial stratification, the causes and consequences of inequality, and the intersection of race and criminal justice in the United States. In particular, you’ll address how social forces have contributed to the disproportionate incarceration of Black people. Last, a section on #BlackLivesMatter describes what a post-racial nation might look like and how we might do the daily work needed to bring it to life.
Throughout, Prof. Simmons encourages you to investigate the influence of race in the social life of your communities. In the process, you’ll discover the degree to which social forces impact the world right outside your front door.
This is a must-have course for parents, teachers, and all those who wish to understand the science behind some of the biggest issues of our times.
This course is part of the Learn25 collection.
