assistant professor of sociology and social justice, have been named by
the UD Anti-Racism Initiative (UDARI) as the 2022 UDARI Faculty Summer
Scholars. Porcher’s qualitative research study will address the ways
centering Blackness in English education in theory (Black theorists and
ways of knowing) and practice (teaching and best practices from the
Black community) disrupt anti-Blackness in English education programs.
Hughes’s project explores whether an underexplored measure of criminal
justice punitiveness -- capital punishment -- might be associated with
disparities in school discipline for Black and brown students, and asks
if such a relationship exists, under what circumstances it would arise
and for whom the relationship would be most salient.</p> | | Uncropped Vertical | | GP0|#99d961eb-8936-415c-9024-28a13cec289a;L0|#099d961eb-8936-415c-9024-28a13cec289a|Awards and Honors;GTSet|#0a3b6244-764a-4413-b2f1-4b4c15da868c | 2022.00000000000 | https://www.cas.udel.edu/Lists/ForTheRecord/DispForm.aspx?ID=174 | |
