Free webinar: Rhonda Magee on legal education as contemplative, multicultural inquiry
Registration is open for The Association for Contemplative Mind in Higher Education's free May webinar, featuring law professor Rhonda Magee. The online session will take place on May 16, 3:00-4:00 pm EDT.
Rhonda Magee, from the University of San Francisco School of Law, will discuss "Legal Education as Contemplative, Multicultural Inquiry: Lessons from a (Lifelong) Course on Race, Law and Beloved Community."
Over the past thirteen years, Magee has developed a pedagogical method for the study of race and legal history in diverse groups that promotes "change for good." The webinar will address such questions as:
How can we better develop the cognitive, personal and interpersonal skills necessary to identify and effectively dismantle structures of privilege and subordination in our midst? How can we better learn, work and thrive together in diverse communities as we seek to create a more just world?
