Megan Satterthwaite-Freiman is a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. Her research interest include processes and factors that contribute to ethnic-racial identity development (e.g., ethnic-racial socialization, curriculum, culturally sustaining pedagogy, etc.) and the relationship between one’s ethnic-racial identity and one’s beliefs and commitments. More specifically, she studies how white adolescents within the United States develop their ethnic-racial identity and the impact this has on their attitudes and actions. She is also interested in the impact of school ethnic-racial socialization and the role of teachers on white youths’ ethnic-racial identity development and understandings of whiteness and systemic racism. She received her PhD in Education from Harvard University, and holds an Ed.M. in Prevention Science and Practice from the Harvard Graduate School of Education and a B.A. in History from Boston College with a minor in secondary education.
