Soukamneuth, Sengsouvanh
Education Digest: Essential Readings Condensed for Quick Review, v69 n7 p18-24 Mar 2004
In this article, the author talks about how to confront racial tensions that sometimes arise among students from different racial groups. Here, the author presents a four-year study conducted by the Social Policy Research Associates, funded in part by Carnegie Corporation of New York, on school-based strategies for addressing intergroup relations at six public high schools in California. This was done in order to understand how to create the contexts for positive intergroup relations and a caring and safe school environment.
