Reducing Inequities in Student Education
(RISE) LAB
Principal Investigator: Dr. Kamilah Legette
“Intersectionality makes plain that gender, race, class, and sexuality simultaneously affect the perceptions, experiences, and opportunities of everyone living in a society stratified along these dimensions. To understand any one of these dimensions, psychologists must address them in combination; intersectionality suggests that to focus on a single dimension in the service of parsimony is a kind of false economy.”
— Cole, 2009

Dr. Legette joined HOPE’s Director of Training and Technical Assistance, Amanda Winn, for the third vlog in our new series, HOPE Block by Block. This series highlights the work of Black practitioners, scholars, researchers, and community activists during the month of February. In this third episode, Dr. Legette will address the HOPE building block of relationships. The relationship building block is about children having healthy, close, positive relationships within the family, with other children, and with other adults. Listen in here!
