- Summary:
-
This document is a transcript of a Congressional hearing on race relations and adolescents. The impetus for much of the testimony is the worsening climate of race relations in the United States, represented by recent violent incidents involving youths. The witnesses were a varied group of social scientists, politicians, and educators who have studied race related incidents and the social and psychological consequences of racism. They gave testimony on the implications of racism for youth and presented some successful strategies for helping young people cope with diversity. Topics covered include the following: (1) school segregation; (2) the inequality of educational opportunity; (3) the educational experiences of immigrants in the United States; (4) the stereotyping and scapegoating of blacks; (5) incidents of race-related violence; (6) racial tension between Salvadoran and black youngsters; (7) plans for defusing race-related crises, in high schools; and (8) other institutional approaches to improving race relations.
