UM Researchers Tackle Racial Inequality

Researcher Rebecca Shearer and her team were one of seven to receive a University of Miami U-LINK grant to tackle racial injustice and inequality. The grant aims to elevate society’s awareness of racial issues and develop solutions to address discrimination and oppression.

This grant assists in UM’s mission to help end systemic racism in the U.S. “There is no greater or more pressing issue of societal importance than that of anti-Black racism,” said Erin Kobetz, UM’s vice provost for research and scholarship. Shearer’s research weighs children’s resilience and how to get children the resources they need in the future.
