Jarvis R. Givens on Black Reconstructions: Race, Educational History, and the Problem of the Archive

Professor Jarvis R. Givens, a distinguished Professor of Education and African and African American Studies at Harvard University, joins OISE to deliver its 2024 R.W.B. Jackson Lecture. As an interdisciplinary historian, Professor Givens' research falls at the intersection of the history of American education, 19th and 20th century African American history, and critical theories of race and schooling. His work explores themes of education, power, and resistance contextually, beyond rigid frames that limit where we look for meaningful experiences of teaching and learning. His work is committed to clarifying how persecution has impacted the lives of black people (and other oppressed communities) in school and society, while also attending to how these communities have used education and culture, subversively, to seek out lives that transcend their suffering.
