民族研究


民族研究的历史可以追溯到我们自己的湾区。 The term Ethnic Studies as a collective identifier of the four autonomous disciplines was a compromise in 1968 to replace its original name “Third World Studies.” The new term was designated by students from the Third World Liberation Front at San Francisco State College, now San Francisco State University. 民族研究 came about during a time when Black students from the Black Student Union demanded the following from their college administrators:

  1. 增加黑人学生和所有有色人种学生接受高等教育的机会
  2. 增加对黑人教员和有色人种教员的雇用
  3. 建立黑人研究项目,并最终建立种族研究项目/部门

What makes 民族研究 unique from 天博 fields of study is that it challenges fundamental underpinnings of knowledge structures and serves as an antidote for 知识缺口。 它是一个 以整体和文化为中心的智力方法 学生是知识持有者和知识生产者的世界观。 They gain understandings of their origins, and why 学术界的知识差距依然存在。 Through an emancipatory learning experience and cultivation of agency, scholars transcend these gaps and call for an antiracist approach not only to educational frameworks within academic institutions but in our local, national and global communities.
