How Schools Make Race with Dr. Laura Chavez Moreno
In this episode, Lissette and Maurice spoke with Dr. Laura C. Chávez-Moreno about her book How Schools Make Race: Teaching Latinx Racialization in America. The discussion focused on how schools shape ideas about race through policies and practices, often reinforcing racial inequalities. Using a bilingual education program as a case study, Chávez-Moreno highlighted the complexities of racialization for Latinx students and how education can both challenge and perpetuate racism.
