Family Socialization Around Race/Ethnicity and Racism: Advancing Understanding of Racial/Ethnic Inequalities in the U.S.
Category : News/Events
Thirtieth National Symposium on Family Issues
October 24-25, 2022, Penn State
Despite its significance for individuals, families and the larger society, research on family socialization on issues of race/ethnicity and racism remains limited. Thus, the goal of Penn State’s 30th Annual Symposium on Family Issues is to draw scholars’ attention to the study of family socialization around racial/ethnic inequalities and racism in the U.S., including with a focus on family-focused programs, practices and policies that may help to address this national challenge and its widespread and deleterious implications. Toward stimulating novel interdisciplinary and translational research on families, the 2022 Family Symposium will examine race and racism in the U.S., racial/ethnic socialization in families of color, and antiracist socialization in white families.
Registration is required for attending and streaming the Symposium. A recording of the Symposium will be accessible to registrants. A decision on a hybrid or all-virtual Symposium will be made in early September.
