Abstract

This book chapter is published in "African Americans and Community Engagement in Higher Education: Community Service, Service-learning, and Community-based Research." The book discusses race and its roles in university-community partnerships.

The contributors take a collaborative, interdisciplinary, and multiregional approach that allows students, agency staff, community constituents, faculty, and campus administrators an opportunity to reflect on and redefine what impact African American identity—in the academy and in the community—has on various forms of community engagement.
