Social Justice in the Art Classroom with Dr. Lauren Cross. Dr. Cross beautifully, respectfully, and resolutely introduces frameworks for Social Justice to Visual Art teachers working for Dallas ISD during professional development week at Dallas Contemporary. She facilitates tough conversations about subjects many would rather ignore or conversely who many depend upon for life-saving change. She introduces key concepts like hegemony and stratification, Critical Race Theory, white allyship, and decolonization.
