Leadership on race in a changing suburban high school
Article Abstract:
Embedded intergroup relations theory was used to analyze dialogues between educational leaders and high school students that focused on improving race relations. The analysis revealed that neither the high school nor the community was able to grant authority to the leaders to do the work necessary to improve relations, validating embedded intergroup relations theory as a means of identifying implementation problems.
