Welcome to the 2nd Annual State of Black Learning Conference! We are excited that you have chosen to join us for this year’s convening. Take a look at the itinerary and begin building your schedule today!
The session will detail the findings (via presentation and whole group discussion) from a phenomenological study that examined the lived experiences of 10 African-American emerging adults (18-25) who participated in race-based interventions during their secondary education and successfully integrated the interventions to mitigate race-based trauma academically, socially, and emotionally. During the session, the following key qualitative data findings the respondents valued will be revealed: 1) acute awareness of the needs of African-American youth 2) access to tools to address the needs of African American youth 3) exposure to various platforms that allow African American youth to witness, develop, practice, and activate the tools.
