The only page I could find on Kenneth Clark was a page about both Kenneth and Mamie Clark. I plan to add more detailed information about Kenneth Clark to this current page. I have outlined a general "life story" for Kenneth Clark. A few of these things are already listed on the Wikipedia page. I would like to specifically give more details about his mentors and the work he did with them. I would also like to go more in depth with discussion on the various psychology courses he taught and which ones he preferred to teach. I would also like to talk more in depth about his approach of "internal colonialism" that he developed after being unhappy with the results, even after the desegregation of schools law was passed in the Brown v. Board of Education case.
