Many of these courses are part of the innovative Inside- Out Prison Exchange Program, which brings inside and outside students together in a shared college class. Drawing on ethnographic observations, interviews, and 8 years of experience teaching Inside- Out courses, this article explores the ways students construct racial identities and understand racial hierarchies as they work together behind bars. Race is the elephant in the room in America’s prisons, so faculty need to develop new strategies to support our students in the complex emotional and intellectual work of making sense of race. This requires understanding the diversity of our students’ racialized experiences, pushing back against the temptations of colorblindness, and developing new ways to practice relationship building and social solidarity. This article is based on my own work teaching Inside- Out classes and organizing tutoring and writing work-shops for 11 years in a juvenile facility in Southern California. In this time, I have taught nine Inside- Out classes and conducted research on this larger community service learning project from 2012 to 2018. This article draws on more focused participant observation in two Inside- Out classes in 2012 and 2013 and the analysis of the written reflections of 30 outside and 28 inside students from classes taught in 2012, 2013, and 2016. I also draw on 17 interviews conducted with outside students from those same classes, who were recruited for interviews after completing the Inside- Out class. Unfortunately, I did not have institutional review board permission to interview inside students, so their perspectives are less fully represented here (see Tilton, 2020). The racial demographics of outside student participants in this research mirror my Inside- Out classes: White outside students are the majority, about 10% of students are African American, and 30% are Latino, with occasional students who identify as Asian or biracial. 2 Inside students are overwhelmingly Latino and Black, with usually one White inside student in a class. I conducted interviews with seven White, six Latino, and four Black outside students, oversampling Black and Latino students so that I was able to explore the complexity of their experiences inside. In interviews, I asked students to reflect broadly on what they expected and learned from our shared class room as well as more focused questions about how the class made them reflect on race and class in America, how it felt to move between our predominantly White campus and the locked facility, and how they experienced their complex intersectional identities in the Inside- Out classroom. I did open coding, refining key themes and patterns in interview transcripts and response papers, and then chose representative quotes to highli","PeriodicalId":93128,"journal":{"name":"Michigan journal of community service learning","volume":"2 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90090523","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While most studies of undergraduate students’ perceptions of SLCE focus on particular experiences or on SLCE in general, contextualizing these findings within students’ percep tions of various teaching strategies and knowledge can better assist faculty in engaging students. Drawing on cognitive anthropology, this article is one of the first to conduct a cultural domain analysis to provide insights into how undergraduates conceptualize SLCE in relation to other teaching strategies. This broader analysis of the associations undergraduates make with SLCE reveals how these can carry ramifications for quality engagement with the project and community partners. The results include how faculty can design and scaffold SLCE into their courses in the absence of a centralized agency or formal campus- wide process for regulating SLCE experiences. From a university perspective, service- learning and community engagement (SLCE) has been identified as a high- impact practice that offers certain advantages over traditional lecture and assignments, yet some students do not always recognize the benefits of SLCE. 1 Past research reveals that part of the context that influences students’ understandings of and responses to SLCE includes students’ life experiences and identities, their expe-1.","PeriodicalId":93128,"journal":{"name":"Michigan journal of community service learning","volume":"35 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90207884","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The term service- learning is problematic as it invokes inequitable power dynamics that inherently privilege one group over another, with more privileged groups providing “service” to marginalized groups (Bortolin, 2011). CECL shifts service- learning from a student- centered pedagogy to an equity- based framework that views all constituent stakeholders as invested partners in the co- design, implementation, and evaluation of CECL initiatives and is founded on redistributed power and authority to promote civic learning and social change. CECL is structured by six guiding principles: social justice, power dynamics, community, civic learning objectives, reflexivity, and sustainability. Consequently, we argue that CECL can be seen across four overar ching outcomes— increased self- awareness, self- efficacy, and self- empowerment; increased awareness of civic agency; better understanding of community; and workforce preparation— which can be assessed through the CECL Inventory for Social Change (CECL- ISC) (Awkward et al., 2021). This article contributes to a long- standing conversation about the implementation of service- learning by proposing an updated revision for the 21st century: critically engaged civic learning (CECL). Service- learning has been embedded in universities and communities for close to a century, where it has been framed as a movement, educational phenomenon, pedagogy, theory, and field (Giles & Eyler, 1994). However, the term service- learning is problematic as it invokes inequitable power dynamics that inherently privilege one group over another, with more privileged groups providing “service” to marginalized groups (Bortolin, 2011; Mitchell, 2007). This crit-icism attacks the epicenter of service- learning, which often places emphasis on “servicing” others rather than collaborating to resolve issues that affect everyone in the community, including the educational institution. This framing reinforces structural and institutional inequalities in the community and reifies the inequitable power dynamics that persist throughout","PeriodicalId":93128,"journal":{"name":"Michigan journal of community service learning","volume":"16 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82318203","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The past year has made the urgency of this issue even more clear. When we began the work to plan this issue— sending out the call for proposals, thinking through the timeline to publication— we had not yet heard of the novel coronavirus. As we were all trying to navigate the COVID- 19 global pandemic, the disproportionate impacts of the pandemic cre-ated a stark picture of economic stratification, the disparities in health care access, and the racial realities of both. As institutions, engagement centers, and instructors were thinking about how community engagement work might need to change to be responsive to the COVID- 19 pandemic, the inequities laid bare made clear the need to center social justice in this work. Then, the multiple killings of unarmed Black Americans— Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery, Elijah McClain, Rayshard Brooks, Tony McDade, George Floyd, to name only a few— due to the actions of law enforcement, inspired a series of social protests but also commitments from higher education leaders to move their institutions toward racial equity, another signal that community engagement should center social justice. The deaths, in the United States, of over 600,000 from COVID- 19 (Allen et al., 2021); the loss of more than a dozen Black transwomen in 2021 (Yurcaba, 2021); the increase in the food insecurity of more than 40 million people (Feeding America, 2021); an insurrection attempt on the U.S. Capitol led by individuals with ties to anti- Semitic and white nationalist movements; efforts in 43 states to reduce access to voting in ways that would disproportionately affect Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) communities; increased inci dents of violence targeting Asian and Asian American communities, including the murders, in March of 2021, of six women of Asian descent in a mass shooting at three spas in Atlanta that took eight lives in total— we are living in a moment that requires attention to and action","PeriodicalId":93128,"journal":{"name":"Michigan journal of community service learning","volume":"13 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75708350","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
