School of Education Doctoral Research Centre - Annual Guest Lecture
10 Oct 2013 5:30PM - 10 Oct 2013 7:00PM
Description: Race, Lies & Education: the myth of White victims and the reality of racist policy by Professor Dave Gillborn.
Applying a critical race theory (CRT) perspective to current debates and reforms in the US and England, the lecture critiques the operation of colour-blind policies, supposedly meant to ‘raise standards’ and ensure fairness, that systematically disadvantage minoritized groups and appeal to White racist self-interest.
David Gillborn is Professor of Critical Race Studies and Director of the Centre for Research in Race & Education (CRRE) at the University of Birmingham.
Venue: Council Chamber/Canada Room
