The Center for Education and Civil Rights (CECR) hosted a livestream viewing of the 15th AERA Brown Lecture and a discussion to follow. The Annual Brown Lecture in Education Research is designed to feature the important role of research in advancing understanding of equality and equity in education, and commemorate the anniversary of the Brown v. Board of Education U.S. Supreme Court decision.
   
The 15th speaker, H. Richard Milner IV, was the Cornelius Vanderbilt Endowed Chair of Education and Professor of Education in the Department of Teaching and Learning at Peabody College of Vanderbilt University. In this talk titled, "Disrupting Punitive Practices and Policies: Rac(e)ing Back to Teaching, Teacher Preparation, and Brown", Milner examined practices and policies at all levels that are implicitly or overtly designed to punish rather than support academic, social, cultural, and psychological development of Black, Brown, and low-income students. Implications for the preparation and development of teachers were also discussed.
