Defending Adolescence for Children of Color

In the kickoff of our 2022 Racial Justice Training Series and Book Club, Prof. Kristin Henning was joined by Dr. Laurence Steinberg to discuss adolescent development and race.

This session was built around the Introduction, Molotov Cocktail or Science Experiment?, and Chapter 1, American Adolescence in Black and White, of Prof. Henning’s book, The Rage of Innocence: How America Criminalizes Black Youth.

This session was held on February 28, 2022 and is intended for youth defender audiences.
