Matthew D. Nelsen: The Color of Civics, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

How do we prepare an increasingly diverse generation of Americans for full participation in public life? Drawing on lessons from students and teachers in Chicago, The Color of Civics reimagines the democratic purpose of civic education. Matthew D. Nelsen presents a new approach to civic education that aims to foster political empowerment, increase rates of intended political participation among young people of color, and heighten political empathy among white youth. Including novel empirical research and an evidence-based analysis, Nelsen provides practical and useful advice for policymakers that cuts through the noise to focus on what works.
