Ep. 44 | How Schools Make Race with Prof. Laura Chavez-Moreno

#RaceClass

About
"Latine" or "Latinx"? Race or ethnicity? English Language Learner or Emergent Bilingual?

UCLA Professor Laura Chavez-Moreno joins #RaceClass to discuss her new book "How Schools Make Race: Teaching Latinx Racialization in America." We explore how schools teach about race implicitly and explicitly; making Latinidad; and racialization's consequences. We also hit on the escalating ICE raids terrorizing communities across the country.
