Irwin, Lauren N.; Foste, Zak – Review of Higher Education, 2021
We argue that traditional service-learning programs commodify People of Color for the benefit of white people and white-serving institutions. First, we use racial capitalism, white normativity, and race frames to deconstruct service-learning programs. We offer three critiques of what we term "white-serving service-learning": (1) race and…

Steven Stone-Sabali – Journal of Diversity in Higher Education, 2024
Antiracism education can be a transformative experience for White college students. However, the process of learning can engender strong reactions (e.g., defensiveness) that disrupts participation. Though some White students are more successful in moving closer toward an antiracist position, little is known about this group. This gap in knowledge…

Camparo, James; Camparo, Lorinda B.; Wagner, Judith T. – Applied Psychological Measurement, 2010
