Resources for Intercultural Competencies: Race/Ethnicity
Original: Resourcesfor Intercultural Competencies: Race/Ethnicity
We believe students need to be prepared to understand and relateto the issue of race and ethnicity from a Christ-centered worldviewand applying appropriate pedagogy. This theme includes racialharmony and diversity, with a special emphasis on black-whiterelationships. We assume that CCCU staff and volunteers canexplore, document, research, consult, dialogue and encourage inuseful ways that benefit the campuses and the wider Body ofChrist. We hope the following resources willbe helpful in furthering discussion on your campus. Wealso welcome your feedback, suggestions, and recommendations ofother good materials to add to this library.
