What is Critical Race Theory? Boston University Senior Diversity Officer Panel Explains
On February 10, 2022, the Boston University Office of the Senior Diversity Officer hosted an educational discussion on Critical Race Theory (CRT) - a body of legal scholarship and an academic movement of U.S. civil rights scholars and activists who [...]are critically examining the intersection of race and U.S. law and challenging mainstream American approaches to racial justice.
In collaboration with the BU Dean of Students Office, School of Law, Wheelock College of Education & Human Development, and School of Public Health, this panel approached CRT from a multidisciplinary approach to better inform and equip the next generation of leaders with a deeper understanding of complex issues and to promote constructive dialogue within the BU community and beyond.
An overview of CRT was provided by Dr. Angela Onwuachi-Willig, Dean and Ryan Roth Gallo & Ernest J. Gallo Professor of Law at the School of Law. Dr. Onwuachi-Willig also moderated the panel, which included: Dr. Janet Dewart Bell, Founder and President, LEAD InterGenerational Solutions, Inc., Dr. Laura M. Jiménez, Associate Dean of Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion at Wheelock College of Education & Human Development and Dr. Craig Andrade, Associate Dean for Practice and Director of the Activist Lab, School of Public Health.
