Dear Heidi,
One manifestation of systemic racism involves the development of afterschool programs without the voices, visions, and dreams of youth of color. This "top down" approach to program design
perpetuates white supremacy and adultism (Bañales et al., 2021; Aldana & Richards-Schuster, 2019), as it considers adults' perspectives—particularly those of white men—more valuable
than youths' perspectives.
To counteract these "top down" approaches to afterschool program development, the current study uses qualitative data with 675 youth of color ages 14-18 (36% Black, 11% Asian, 6% Latinx,
6% Middle Eastern or Arab, 4% Indigenous People, 4% multiracial) to investigate how youth consider their communities in their visions for afterschool programs. Findings and reflections
on critical approaches to youth and afterschool program development will be discussed.
Speaker

Josefina Bañales, PhD
Josefina Bañales, Ph.D. is an Assistant Professor in the Community and Prevention Research Area at the University of Illinois, Chicago. Dr. Bañales infuses her personal experiences as
a Mexican American woman who is a first-generation high school, college, and doctoral student from the Southwest side of Chicago with her community-engaged research with youth of color
in schools and community organizations.
As an undergraduate student, Dr. Bañales completed the Summer Research Opportunities Program (SROP). With the CAMBIAR Collective <https://alumniq.wwu.edu/link/?ml=7630C471-5878-4DE4-A5CB5F587AB9E5B3&
mc=ad4bb33a-9dab-11ed-8845-0e4fe6ca0e11> , her research examines how youth develop beliefs, feelings, and actions that challenge racism (i.e., youth critical racial consciousness development).
In collaboration with youth, schools, parents, and community organizations, she co-creates opportunities that facilitate youths' critical racial consciousness development.
Dr. Bañales loves hot black coffee, singing, and walking at a very leisurely pace.
