The 2021 Pastora San Juan Cafferty Lecture

Join the Crown School and Jarvis Givens, an Assistant Professor at the Harvard Graduate School of Education, as he presents the 2021 Pastora San Juan Cafferty Lecture. Givens studies the history of American education, African American history, and the relationship between race and power in schools. His first book, Fugitive Pedagogy: Carter G. Woodson and the Art of Black Teaching, was published by Harvard University Press in 2021. This work traces African Americans' traditions of challenging racial domination in schools and society by highlighting the various intellectual and political strategies they employed from the slavery era through Jim Crow.
