Teaching about racism can be difficult, but teaching about it as a system, rather than as an individually based phenomenon, is one of the keys to more effective student learning. In our study, we examined how students came to see racism as systemic using both quantitative and qualitative measures across two courses (introductory and advanced). Our results clearly show how students can move from an understanding based in individualistic emotions and symbols to one based in systemic factors of race and gender. We look forward to sharing our work with you and hearing your responses.
