Abstract

Emotional responses of students in minority communities to police violence can encompass grief, anger, fear, and avoidance. We describe development of a curriculum module to address student emotions following these tragedies that can reduce subsequent academic difficulties and disruptions.   This project was supported by the APS Grant for Antiracist Curricula.
