Insights, Challenges, and Rewards: Talking about Race with International College Students in the U.S. Today
Friday, June 1, 2018 at 9:30 AM–10:15 AM EDT
LL6: Middlesex East
Session Abstract
What does it mean to come to the U.S. today as international students, marked as “other” by visa status (always), accent (often), and skin color (sometimes)? How do these students understand and critique race-related issues? By analyzing students’ writing, key themes emerge, which may help others working with international students.
