MULTIDIMENSIONAL APPROACH IN RESOLVING RACIAL TENSION IN THE SCHOOLS UTILIZING PSYCHODRAMATIC TECHNIQUES
Keywords:
PSYCHODRAMATICAbstract
Youth confront their parents, teachers, school, and other authorities. Black students confront the white students, white students confront black students, which usually results in counterconfrontation, disorganization, and chaos.
Rebellion appears to have been chosen by youth as the path to the solution of all problems. Discussion, alienation, and withdrawal seem to be a defense against submission to and a way of participating in the failures of society.
