African American education in a hegemonic society. Confronting the challenge of westernity

Description

In this program, Dr. Asante argues that Eurocentric power structure prevents proper schooling of African American children. Eurocentricsm takes power at the center, with others at the margins. This sets up an "us vs. them" system rather than a "we" relationship. Counseling students will learn how to think about hegemony and power in the interview. This presentation leads us all to empowerment, and responsibility.
