The Center on Education and the Workforce at Georgetown University recently released a groundbreaking report on racial inequity in higher education - Separate and Unequal: How Higher Education Reinforces the Intergenerational Reproduction of White Privilege.
One of the study's co-authors, Dr. Jeff Strohl, will join us to discuss the study's findings. We'll talk about whether there are two separate tracks into higher education institutions, one track for white students and another for black and Latino students. We'll also discuss resources in those different tracks and the role of white privilege in perpetuating inequity in higher ed.
