An individual's experiences and  perception of the world around them are key to understanding the current state in which they and the groups that they represent are in.
2. An outside ("objective") perspective does not allow for the acquisition or understanding of these experiences.
3. There is a very evident disparity in educational achievement between men and women of Caribbean (West Indie, Dominican, & Haitian) descent that can be proven by statistics. Through personal experience and stories the causes of this can be traced to societal, and institutional problems that members of these groups and other continue to face today.]]> 2019-01-20 17:20:49 UTC https://padlet.com/jburkhart3/xcqxjxzrfg9g/wish/322511229 jburkhart3 https://padlet.com/jburkhart3/xcqxjxzrfg9g/wish/322511268 Focus group discussions were conducted with students that aimed at determining how these students interpreted the impact that being racialized and gendered by authorities, organizations, police, and other entities has affected their perception of the world around them.

2. Older generations of Dominican, West Indian, and Haitian NYC residents were questioned through interviews about their life and experiences with race and gender in the city.
3. Observations were made of West Indian, Dominican, and Haitian high school students.
