Explores this question through balanced engagement with both theory and practical application. Deepens understanding of anti-racism learning through empirical analysis of narrative accounts of people shifting toward anti-racist practice over the lifespan. Recommended: coursework or familiarity with foundational theories of learning (e.g., situated learning theory, Vygotskian sociocultural theory) and theories of race/racism (e.g., critical race theory, Whiteness studies).
