In the videos below, Anthony Abraham Jack talks about some of the findings from his research.
Anthony Abraham Jack—a Shutzer Assistant Professor at Harvard Radcliffe Institute and an assistant professor of education at the Harvard Graduate School of Education—is a leading diversity scholar who gained national acclaim for his award-winning first book, The Privileged Poor: How Elite Colleges Are Failing Disadvantaged Students (Harvard University Press, 2019). With funding from the Harvard & the Legacy of Slavery initiative, he conducted research into how the COVID-19 closures affected those from lower-income backgrounds.
