The “Not-So-Final Remark”

This project examines white student learning in the Intergroup People of Color-White People Dialogues (POC-WHITE) and Intragroup White Racial Identity Dialogues (IWRID) at a small liberal arts college in the Northeast. Specifically, in this article, we explore the following research question: At the conclusion of the dialogues, how do white students conceptualize their white racial identity in relation to ally development and motivation to engage in antiracist action? Through content analyses of student papers, this study advances our understanding of how white students make sense of alliance building in an effort to create social change; it also extends national efforts to conduct research on inter/intragroup dialogues and their impact on white students.
