Race, Education, & Democracy: A Simmons College/Beacon Press Lecture and Book Series

The Race, Education and Democracy Lecture and Book Series, a collaborative effort of Simmons College and Beacon Press, will annually bring to Boston a prominent scholar to deliver four to five public lectures on the topic of Race, Education and Democracy. These lectures will form the basis for a book, which will be published by Beacon Press. The 2011 lecture series is being delivered by Dr. Ernest Morrell, associate professor in the Urban School Division of the Graduate School of Education and Information Studies at University of California at Los Angeles.
