Learning from/with Black girls: Identity, Intersectionality, and Intervention

Undergraduate / Graduate

This seminar examines adolescent identity development by listening to learning from Black girls. We will discuss research and literature about and by Black girls (and women) to articulate how identities are formed, the contexts in which identities unfold, and the strategies used to resist oppression and promote healthy development. The course focuses on how the ideas of identity, intersectionality, and intervention are conceptualized, operationalized, and applied in scholarship with Black girls.
