The racial mismatch between the overwhelmingly white teaching force and an increasingly heterogeneous student population continues to widen (Boucher, M. (2016). Urban Education, 51(1), 82–107.) with pernicious implications for BIPOC students "who are systematically marginalized by the institution of schooling" (Kinloch, V., & Dixon, K. (2017). English Teaching: Practice & Critique, 16(3), p. 332). This article employs critical whiteness studies to examine one white teacher's progress toward antiracist praxis. By "problematizing the normality of hegemonic whiteness" (Matias et al.. (2014). Equity & Excellence in Education, 47(3), p.291), critical whiteness studies expose the ways that whiteness and white people's resistance to acknowledging their whiteness upholds racism and systems of racial injustice. Analysis uncovered two shifts: 1) from a deficit perspective to an asset-based stance, and 2) from a dominant culture curriculum to a culturally relevant and sustaining curriculum that centered family and community. The conclusion offers recommendations for integrating antiracist praxis into pedagogy and ways of being. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Greater use of antiracist and inclusive pedagogy is necessary to address racism in public health education. To effectively prepare the next generation of public health faculty who can support diverse cohorts of students in developing the skills needed to promote health equity, such pedagogies must be integrated into doctoral teaching training. Based on our experiences as co-instructors and student of a doctoral-level course on teaching public health, we offer recommendations for integrating antiracist and inclusive pedagogies into doctoral teaching training. First, integrating student voices, such as letters to academic institutions demanding changes to address institutional racism, can prompt reflection and discussion on how doctoral students' teaching can contribute to antiracist work. Second, pedagogy courses offer the opportunity to model inclusive teaching strategies that value the participation and perspectives of all students. Third, mentored teaching experiences provide doctoral students opportunities to meaningfully engage in course preparation and delivery, including reflexive consideration of positionality in the context of the course. Fourth, instructors and doctoral students must engage in ongoing and collaborative learning, reflection, discovery, and accountability. We encourage public health programs to assess how antiracist and inclusive pedagogies fit into doctoral teaching training and implement further steps to better prepare future faculty to become antiracist educators.

In this paper, I consider evidence of how students of colour enact whiteness by being violent towards depictions of Black people even in spaces without Black people. I argue that people who engage in anti-racist pedagogy have to be vigilant – aware that anti-Black spaces will be created and ready to respond. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The U.S. education system has been a critical site in the nation's ongoing fight for racial equity. Yet, despite many attempts to promote equity within and across schools, efforts fall short in a system designed to uphold norms rooted in whiteness and white supremacy. We need anti-racist educational leaders who can identify and push back at the racial bias embedded in educational policies. Through a research-practice partnership with a Midwestern high school, we sought to understand how an anti-racist policy decision-making protocol can be used to redress inequitable policies to be racially just. The anti-racist policy decision-making protocol promotes social justice by empowering school practitioners to become policy agents. Implications from our findings point to the need for school practitioners to be critically introspective and identify and directly address the politics of whiteness that can ensue when working in partnership to do anti-racist policy change.

In this paper, we discuss the decolonisation of curriculum development in an online undergraduate health course at the University of South Australia, emphasising the importance of centring Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander voices and knowledge systems. We highlight the ongoing role of higher education in perpetuating systemic racism against Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples through colonised curricula and inadequate cultural training. We discuss how we embarked on a comprehensive course redesign aimed at fostering cultural safety and empowering Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander perspectives, moving away from deficit-based narratives. Through our work, we advocate for integrating Indigenous knowledges across health education to prepare graduates for culturally safe practice. In the paper, we discuss challenges faced, such as institutional constraints and the need for ongoing anti-racism education. We emphasise the importance of collaborative efforts between Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander and non-Indigenous academics in curriculum development, creating space for meaningful engagement with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Elders and knowledge holders. Ultimately, we conclude that ongoing reflection and adaptation are crucial for effective decolonisation and in creating inclusive and culturally responsive learning experiences that benefit all health students.

In this manuscript, the authors discuss a seven-day research project that occurred within the Birmingham metropolitan area where fourth graders researched the role that public issues played in the creation of two suburban school systems in their city. We coded student work samples to look for themes. Emergent themes from student work samples are described in the findings section. We conclude in our discussion section with some recommendations for future research studies to teach issues of race in U.S. history based on our findings. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Education doctoral programs have an essential role to play in this moment of American history, as we train, teach, guide, and prepare education professionals to learn, unlearn, and lead as antiracist education activists. EdD program faculty and administrators sit in critical roles and must examine our own antiracist beliefs, while also facilitating anti-racist learning for our doctoral learners, who, in turn, must create anti-racist learning communities where they teach and lead.

The US student body is rapidly diversifying, but remains unmatched by the teachers who serve in their classrooms. There is a growing understanding that teachers, particularly White teachers, must explicitly and thoughtfully engage in anti-bias and anti-racist practices in their classrooms. Our nation, and correspondingly our schools, have witnessed or engaged in tide swells of social activism leading to increased awareness of how systems of oppression have broad-reaching impacts on our society broadly and our students specifically. It can feel difficult or uncomfortable to address issues like privilege, activism, and social justice with children, however, especially when this very concept is the topic of much political and legislative debate currently. Teachers of young children already engage in daily literacy learning, and these experiences provide the perfect opportunity to use carefully chosen picturebooks to scaffold students' perspective taking, reflection, and thoughtful discourse, but these moments do not happen accidentally. In this thought piece, we describe some of the pivotal cultural moments over recent years, how children's literature has responded to and amplified these moments, and strategies teachers can use to ground anti-bias/anti-racist learning opportunities within literacy learning using picturebooks highlighting diversity. We also provide links to instructional resources and culturally responsive book titles for educators to support their forays into anti-racist teaching in their early childhood classrooms.

This article reflects on the challenges of developing anti-racist commitments in a UK university during and 'post' pandemic and re-envisions pedagogic failure in this context. Tackling racism requires that our conversations start from a recognition that we are always situated in relationship not just to others but to the structures and cultures of our environments and communities. There are long histories of empathy and its role, risks and limits in intersectional understandings of the transformation of inequalities. We contend that empathy is integral to anti-racist pedagogies because it: centres relationality in critical and reflective learning; has the capacity to be subversive through its challenge to the 'dominant transmission model of education prevalent in the neoliberal colonial university'; reveals how the university acts upon and works to erase consciousness of our emotional and embodied selves, and has the capacity to unsettle our epistemic horizons to reveal our complicity in colonial practices. Developing a dialogue between the co-authors who worked on a small, funded project on anti-racist learning within a UK Russell Group university in 2022–2023, the article explores the barriers experienced, along with the possibility of constituting 'generative and fulfilling spaces'.

This article explores anti-racist education in business schools amidst the backlash against critical race theory in an anti-Black world. I conduct an autoethnography of my experiences as a woman of colour and management educator who has attempted to bring critical discussions of race and racism into my classrooms. The article examines the barriers to anti-racist teaching in business schools and shows how they interweave individual/interpersonal, institutional, and ideological domains of power. Through my stories, I offer an account of the ways anti-racist education may be limited when it relies on the efforts of individual academics and reveal the tolls that anti-racist education can take on the educator, especially when they are navigating wider systems that are hostile to racial justice. By interrogating the challenges of anti-racist education, I also reflect on the practices and conditions that make meaningful anti-racist education possible. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

As many teacher education programs have returned to in-person instructional models since the initial interruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, little research examines innovative practices during the pandemic at the intersections of racial justice and online teacher education. This self-study illustrates how one Asian male teacher educator linked technological pedagogical content knowledge with anti-racist education in an online multicultural education course at a predominantly white institution in the Pacific Northwest of the United States during the COVID-19 pandemic. Implications include how teacher educators can bridge anti-racist education and technological pedagogical content knowledge in research and practice as an ongoing decolonial project in a post-pandemic world.

The COVID-19 pandemic and the racial justice uprisings of 2020–2022 created an altered and challenging landscape for teaching public health. Challenging and direct experiences with these public health issues and their reverberations shaped how some faculty and many students participated in both online and in-person classrooms. In this project, we conducted a narrative analysis of oral history interviews with eight faculty members at a public university in New York City to understand how they reacted to these events and reconsidered their public health teaching during this period. We map what propelled faculty along paths of change and where these paths led. We learn that participating faculty shifted in varied ways toward more intentional and sometimes more antiracist teaching practices. Two experiences were foundational to these shifts: (1) faculty attunement to student realities during this time, and (2) faculty reflection on their own social positionings (i.e., race, gender identity, sexual orientation, class, age, immigration status, etc.) and their development of critical consciousness. These findings provide insights into how faculty conceptualize, support, and change their teaching approaches during periods of upheaval, particularly in the context of limited institutional support for faculty development. Finally, we discuss key issues for institutions seeking to formalize and enhance shifts like those described. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

We synthesize the tools of Critical Discourse Analysis and Anti-Racist Pedagogy to define and exemplify Critical AntiRacist Discourse Analysis (CARDA) as a tool for addressing expressions of systemic racism in institutional policy. We then demonstrate CARDA with the example of a university course syllabus, which represents an institutional policy text negotiated between an individual and an institution. Findings indicate how CARDA can be used to uncover unconscious and implicit racism and amplify antiracism in a syllabus. Implications include areas in which to expand CARDA as a tool for pursuing antiracist policy and pedagogy in multiple educational and other contexts. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Social work education is at a crossroads with the release of the 2022 Educational Policy Administration Standards (EPAS, 2022), which emphasize anti-racist practice. To teach anti-racist social work one must be prepared to use anti-racist pedagogical practices and be supported to do so institutionally. Freire (2020) proposes that education be a tool of liberation through the use of dialogue and attention to power dynamics. To this end, instructional making about the use of dialogue can help create liberatory classrooms. The concept of dialogic pedagogy (Alexander, 2018; Alexander, 2020) is used in education to support the development of language and critical thinking in students. Although it has yet to be applied extensively to higher education and the social work classroom, dialogic pedagogy has clear connections to social work and the potential to better prepare students for anti-racist practice. In a dialogic classroom, language between students and instructors is carefully attended to based on the following principles; purpose, cumulation, support, collectivity, deliberation, and reciprocality (Alexander, 2018; Alexander, 2020). This paper describes and endorses dialogic pedagogy as a framework to support anti-racist social work pedagogy and discusses the implementation of this framework in terms of faculty support and training. Understanding the framework of dialogic pedagogy can support faculty with more critical use of dialogue in classrooms; ultimately supporting anti-racist practice. Using a dialogic framework can support those responsible for training faculty in better preparing faculty for antiracist pedagogy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Racially motivated bullying remains pervasive across Scottish schools. Teachers have a critical role in nurturing a safe and inclusive environment and preventing stigmatisation and oppression by intervening when a racially motivated bullying episode occurs but also by actively developing an anti-racist climate within their school by providing an anti-racism curriculum and advocating on behalf of minority ethnic youth. Despite the crucial role teachers can play in providing a safe environment, there is a paucity of literature examining the issue. Whilst some limited research is available in England about the barriers to embedding an anti-racist curriculum, there is no research about how teachers respond to racially motivated bullying episodes, the potential barriers to responding, and the processes and factors that influence teachers' judgement calls when a racially motivated bullying incident happens. Similarly, in the Scottish context, there is a lacuna of knowledge about the strategies employed by teachers already within the education system and their perceptions on the support that they need to respond to racist incidents. This study aims to add to our knowledge about this issue by investigating Scottish teachers' strategies when they are confronted with a hypothetical racially motivated bullying incident in their school. Eleven interviews were conducted with a sample of teachers from different levels of education in Scotland. Teacher responses indicated reluctance and, at times, inability to recognise and name incidents as racist. Further data highlighted the reliance on strategies such as using the victim of an incident to educate their peers, one-to-one discussions with both pupils and perpetrators, and a dependence on using their own 'instinct' to appraise an incident and response. Further sub themes emerged, including the perceived influence of generational and geospatial factors on both practitioners and the communities in which they practise and the resounding sentiment that practitioners lack engagement with anti-racist training. Our findings highlight the need to invest in schools, communities, and young people in order to create the social conditions in which teachers' capacities to respond to racism can develop and flourish.

Racial inequalities persist in education, impacting various aspects, including language teaching. Traditional English language education has often favored standard English, inadvertently marginalizing non-native English speakers and users of diverse English varieties. This perpetuation of linguistic bias reinforces White hegemony within educational systems. This article contends that Global Englishes offers a promising approach to ameliorating racial inequalities in language education. It delves into the core principles of Global Englishes, scrutinizing linguistic, sociolinguistic, and sociocultural diversity and fluidity inherent in English use and its users in our globalized world. Furthermore, it explores how the Global Englishes Language Teaching (GELT) framework can promote equality, emphasizing best practices for implementing GELT to address racial inequalities. Global Englishes advocates for a more adaptable view of language, liberating non-native speakers from native-speaker norms. Global Englishes places learner agency at the forefront, nurturing linguistic creativity, advocating for curricula that acknowledge multilingualism as the norm, and affirming learners' linguistic repertoires without reference to native norms. It also encourages a critical approach, analyzing the impact of prevailing standard language ideologies and White native-speakerism biases within learners' contexts. The article concludes by offering insights into future directions to address racial inequalities in education, emphasizing the importance of incorporating multiracial perspectives into educational frameworks.

Sports, with their various social manifestations, exhibit racist structures and incidents. Physical education (PE) has the potential to serve as an environment to combat racism, but it can also perpetuate and (re)produce racist attitudes and behaviors. This study aimed to conduct a systematic review of national (German) and international literature concerning racism and anti-racism within the context of PE specifically from a students' perspective. The research methodology followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) standard and encompassed a four-step process: (1) searching 11 electronic databases using 70 keyword combinations in both German and English; (2) selecting studies based on five predetermined inclusion criteria; (3) evaluating the quality of selected studies using established appraisal tools; and (4) conducting descriptive and template analyses. Of 5,213 publications, 16 met the inclusion criteria, demonstrating diverse theoretical frameworks and methodological approaches. Five themes were constructed: "How racism is understood" (1); "What students experience," encompassing discriminatory incidents in PE, sports, and daily life classified as racial stereotypes, prejudices, and everyday racism (2); and "What physical education teachers (3)/Institutions (4)/researchers (5) can and should do." These themes provided recommendations for teachers, institutions, and researchers, including training and curriculum reforms. While valuable international literature was identified, no German PE specific publications were found emphasizing the necessity of a local (German) survey to comprehend students' experiences, knowledge, and potential for anti-racism efforts. Such insights are crucial for shaping teacherrelated training programs and policy demands in an informed and targeted manner. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

At the core of archaeology, we want to change the world for the better. Our theories, our systematic methodologies, and stories we tell, seek to inform the present about the past with the hope of creating a brighter future. Whether in a site report, presented through "Shoe Box" archaeology, or protesting state legislatures/condemnation of anti-racist education; every archaeologist desires to enlighten our world. We have an awareness of self, that with our craft comes the responsibility to serve. For many of us, that call to service brings us to collaborate with communities. Not with archaeologists as gatekeepers of the past, but as equal partners with communities that historically have been neglected, underserved, and/or misrepresented by our craft. This article focuses on the community-based program of Timbuctoo, a Black community in New Jersey. This is a story about archaeologists redefining ourselves in order to better serve marginalized communities through archaeology as social activism. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The social work profession adheres to the values of social justice and equity, yet extensive literature suggests that anti-racism education in social work has room for growth. Research demonstrates that social work practitioners and educators often fail to recognize (1) how structural oppression creates racial inequities and (2) how social workers maintain and reproduce hegemonic power structures. Critical whiteness theory (CWT) seeks to reveal the invisible role of whiteness in constructing racial inequities. As a subject area, critical whiteness studies emerged in the late 1990s as an expansion of critical race theory. A variety of disciplines have incorporated critical whiteness studies as a framework for anti-racism education; however, CWT remains relatively absent from the social work literature. This paper proposes the incorporation of CWT in social work education as a tool to facilitate critical self-reflexivity and combat structural racism within the profession. Engaging with the concepts of white normativity, white ignorance, and white complicity allows social work educators and students to acknowledge and interrogate the formative ways in which social work pedagogy maintains and reproduces white supremacy.

This paper analyses relationships between whiteness and damage in the university classroom through a focus on two contemporary areas of critical education in Canada: raising white racial consciousness and truth and reconciliation between Indigenous and non-Indigenous people. First, whiteness is damage-producing – it orients anti-racist education towards white students and their needs, there by harming the well-being and constraining the education of non-white students. Second, whiteness gravitates towards what Unangax scholar Eve Tuck calls "damage-centred approaches," which objectify non-white suffering, pathologising Indigenous peoples whilst obfuscating the ongoing reproduction of racism and colonialism. As such, white educators must remain assiduously vigilant about a key tension regarding whiteness and damage: that our pedagogical focus on racial and colonial oppression can simultaneously raise critical consciousness and divert attention away from more fundamental interrogations of whiteness, agency, and relationality within a systemically racist social order. The article closes with some considerations for educators in terms of addressing complicity in their institutions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Background: Racism contributes to health disparities and is a serious threat to public health. Teaching physicians about racism, how to address it in medical practice, and developing high quality and sustainable curricula are essential to combating racism. Objective: This study aimed to (1) describe the experience of racism and anti-racism teaching in residency programs, and elicit recommendations from key informants, and (2) use these data and formative research to develop recommendations for other residencies creating, implementing, and evaluating anti-racism curricula in their own programs. Methods: From May to July 2023, 20 faculty and residents were recruited via convenience sampling for key informant interviews conducted via Microsoft Teams. Interviews were audio recorded, transcribed, and coded. An initial list of themes was developed using theoretical frameworks, and then refined using a grounded-theory approach. A brief online optional anonymous demographic survey was sent to participants in August of 2023. Results: Eighty percent (20/25) of participants approached were interviewed. Seventy-five percent (15/20) answered a brief optional demographic survey. Seven themes emerged: (1) Racism in medicine is ubiquitous; (2) Anti-racism teaching in medicine varies widely; (3) Sustainability strategies should be multifaceted and include recruitment, resource allocation, and outcome measures; (4) Resources are widely available and accessible if one knows where to look; (5) Outcomes and metrics of success should include resident- faculty-, patient- community-, and system-focused outcomes; (6) Curricular strategies should be multilayered, longitudinal, and woven into the curriculum; and (7) Self-reflection and discomfort are necessary parts of the process. Conclusions: This study is one of the first to qualitatively examine perspectives of key stakeholders invested in anti-racism teaching for residents. The Support - Pipeline - Outcomes - Community (SPOC) Model, that was developed using information collected during this study, can be used in the future as a guide for others working to design and implement sustainable and high quality anti-racism curricula for residents.

The curriculum review and transformation project reported in this paper represents an intentional and collaborative effort of faculty and administrators in one academic department to implement meaningful changes in undergraduate curricula. Supported by two internal grants from the university, this three-year project included all faculty and administrators of the department. A systematic comparison was conducted between course syllabi content before and after the curriculum content intervention. Results identify changes in syllabi, course learning objectives, units/topics covered, and readings/course materials. Discussion provides implications for curriculum revision and suggestions for best practices to integrate diversity, equity, and inclusion across curricula. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In spring 2021, we taught a course called Honors White Supremacy and Privilege to university honors students at our higher education institution in Florida. Aimed at helping students process intellectually the Black Lives Matter events of the preceding year, the course took place just as a reaction was gathering momentum against anti-racist teaching. We present the materials used in the 1-credit course and contextualize the experience in ongoing Republican legislative efforts, particularly in Florida, to undermine the ability to teach courses like this. Much of the essay addresses the lessons we took away from the reading material and classroom discussions. These include the non-essentialism of race, the benchmark "normality" of whiteness, the material consequences of white supremacy, connections of the Trump presidency to a history of white supremacy, the recurring reactionary responses to challenges to the racial status quo, and the need to teach about white supremacy and privilege.

Field study and field courses are integral to the discipline of geography. While there are many forms that a field course might take, in this paper we draw on two university-level field courses in the U.S. Southwest to propose a road trip pedagogy for field study. We reflect on the particular resonance of the road trip in the American West and how Western road trip mythology, combined with our own road trip experiences, helped shape the design of two road trip field courses. The educational value of both planned and un-planned encounters is a key strength of a road trip field course. We conclude by briefly reflecting on two future considerations for road trip pedagogy: possibilities for aligning anti-racist pedagogy with road trip pedagogy and the potential transferability of our American West road trip to other locations.

In this article we "work on" the university, to use Sara Ahmed's important phrasing about the work of rebuilding the university that is activated through conversations, stories, and testimony. Through a dialogue between teacher and student, we make visible and explore bell hooks's contention in Teaching Community that "between teacher and student love makes recognition possible." Our dialogue challenges the principles of a dominant university culture through a conversation that is at once a critical exploration and a representation of hooks's pedagogy of love. Our conversation sees a teacher bearing witness to her student's story of her lived experience of racism on campus as together we unfold hooks's statement that teaching with love "will move us away from domination in all its forms." Following hooks, we ask how teaching with love might transform, might work on the university. Our conversation is framed by an engagement with antiracist pedagogy and the principles of the Scarborough Charter. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The comprehensive implementation of anti-racist dance pedagogy requires recognition that the prevailing dominance of Anglo-European cannons of teaching, creating, performing, researching, and learning dance has continued to disempower, subjugate, and inhibit knowledge and practices of communities on the margins. As dance practitioners writing from the margins, we draw on our duoethnographic stories as testimonio and the theories of South-South connection and plática to critically examine how we have engaged ideas, experiences, and practices of people we share connective marginalities with to build critical consciousness and solidarities as a step toward anti-racist collaborative advocacy in dance education. The authors use their writing, choreography, pedagogic, and community engagement experiences to reimagine marginality. The article reveals how critical action around anti-racist dance pedagogy can circumvent institutional and academic rigidities. The discussion ushers the reader into a world where dance practitioners on the margins activate agency to achieve self-empowerment and meaningful connections for, by, and with themselves.

The 2022 Educational Policy and Accreditation Standards (EPAS) from the Council on Social Work Education (CSWE) definitively identifies anti-racism as a necessary component of social work education. This change supports an effort to ensure that coming generations of social workers are more than culturally competent, but rather actively anti-racist in their practice across the micro, mezzo, and macro spectrum. While some social work programs have already embraced anti-racist education, many still have significant work to do. The fact remains that every accredited school will be required to make this shift to stay in compliance with CSWE accreditation once the newly ratified EPAS comes into effect. Although changes are expected of social work schools/programs, guidance on how to make such changes has been scarce. This paper provides an overview of what is meant by anti-racist social work education and why it is important, inclusive of emphasizing the difference between rhetoric and praxis. Based on a narrative review of the literature related to social work schools/programs in the U.S. and Canada that began incorporating anti-racism prior to EPAS 2022, suggestions for encouraging strategies within both the implicit and explicit curricula that align with anti-racist social work education are offered.

The article focuses on utilizing historical fiction to engage young learners in meaningful explorations of history while incorporating anti-bias and anti-racist perspectives. Topics include challenges in teaching social studies, embracing anti-bias and anti-racist pedagogies, and the relevance of historical fiction in making history meaningful for children.

Critical pedagogues advocate a constructivist approach to learning emphasising the self-directed construction of knowledge from the learners' experiences while also expecting students to develop an explicit critique of the social order. However, the use of a constructivist approach for the pursuit of explicit ideological goals leaves educators with a dilemma: what happens when students' reflections don't lead them to the anti-oppressive conclusions teachers desire? Using comparative historical archival methods and oral history interviews, this study interrogates how teachers and students navigated this paradox in the Berkeley Experimental Schools Project (1968–1975), a public educational programme that sought to actualise the goals of both the Free School and Black Power movements. This study sheds light on this dilemma with particular clarity because the Free Schools represent one of the U.S.' most radical experiments in constructivist pedagogy, and the Black Power movement one of our most heightened efforts to challenge systemic oppression. In demonstrating that in Berkeley, it was easier to build self-directed inquiry on a foundation of explicit critique than to build anti-racism on a foundation of free inquiry, this study elucidates tensions at the heart of critical pedagogy, social justice education, and curriculum theory.

Recent attention to issues of systemic and institutional racism have resulted in renewed calls for antiracist teaching and learning in the health sciences. Concurrently, there is an emerging socio-political mobilization to pass legislation that limits the teaching of systemic racism. We argue that teaching and learning about racism in academic health professional curricula often has serious limitations—stagnating in a place of teaching about the social and structural determinants of health, yet emphasizing health education and individual behavioral interventions as solutions to health inequities. We present a framework that explains essential components of antiracist knowledge and action that we argue must be implemented across health sciences curricula. Using this framework, we call on health sciences educators to examine how learners engage with racism as a determinant of health and to make curricular changes that provide opportunities to learn about and engage with antiracist actions.

Based on an ethnographic study at a middle school in a Midwestern city, this article examines the difficulty in creating anti-racist educational spaces, even in schools with a stated desire to do so. The school's curriculum was mainly based on teachers' abstract ideas of social justice and was not grounded in students' everyday realities. It failed to connect students to larger histories and stories of oppression and resistance, the central tenets of culturally relevant approaches. The school also failed in its attempts to shift its culture around discipline that disproportionately impacted Black students. The school's failure to implement culturally relevant and anti-racist curriculum and disciplinary practices illuminates various barriers to such implementation, including a lack of racial and experiential diversity among teachers, a focus on individual behavior rather than classroom and school culture, and a focus on maintaining enrollment as a charter school. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The article discusses the revision of the curriculum in history education, with the goal to offer a curriculum that is more inclusive and committed to antiracism. It notes that history students were surveyed. Additional topics mentioned include allowing for academic freedom, revising scholarly literature, considering the function of history education, and implementing the changes.

Undergraduate research with historical archives offers an engaged and rewarding way to expose students to historical geographic research methods. In combination with an antiracist pedagogical approach, students' archival research provides pathways to better understand the racialized history of a place through a process that most find enjoyable. In this article, the author shares her experience teaching a geography course focused on local racial history in Louisville, Kentucky (United States) and discusses the types of archives-based assignments students complete. In addition, this article presents strategies that geographic educators could take to incorporate archival materials into their own courses. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article presents an argument that although teacher education programs may aim to prepare teachers to be antiracist agents of change, they often fall short of doing so and that investigations of why can provide essential insights for teacher education. The authors use the critique of liberalism tenet of critical race theory to analyze three teacher candidates' experiences learning to teach across three different types of teacher preparation programs and discuss the implications for preparing teachers to be antiracist agents of change. The authors then propose guiding principles for developing teacher candidates' antiracist stance on teaching by situating race and justice in relation to the task of teaching, offering sufficient opportunities to learn about schools and communities as socio-historical and cultural settings, and leveraging pre-teacher education identities for antiracist teaching.

"Space wins" is a long-held homiletical maxim. Usually, this means that architecture and pulpit style influence how sermons are delivered and heard. What is less frequently considered is how monuments and memorials affect proclamation in space. Among other things, Confederate monuments make claims on space, communicate idealized aesthetics, and preach about hopes for a particular eschatological community. This essay examines pedagogical approaches to preaching that confronts Confederate monuments. It is based upon courses I offered in 2022 at The University of the South in Sewanee, Tennessee, and through the Association of Chicago Theological Schools D.Min. program in Chicago, Illinois. After articulating a pedagogy drawn from the work of Leonora Tubbs Tisdale and Willie James Jennings, I examine three approaches to place-based pedagogy that serve anti-racist preaching by (1) analyzing monuments within the teaching location, (2) fostering reflective participation in pilgrimage to the National Memorial for Peace and Justice, and (3) inviting students to research monuments in their home community and confront them through preaching. These approaches can foster preaching that is better attuned to addressing localized histories, better able to identify and confront specific aspects of white supremacy that are concretized in a community, and more adept at offering a gospel proclamation that is finely tuned to the transformative needs of a particular place.

In Australia, racism remains a challenge to dismantle within public health institutions. This paper examines the pressures I experienced from some public health scholars and practitioners to conform to colonial and positivist approaches in knowledge production that still dominate the field. To challenge this hegemony, my research practices turned into what Mignolo calls "epistemic disobedience," an approach to delink from Western ways of producing knowledge. Based on this experiential learning process, I argue epistemic disobedience should not be overlooked in the discussion of decolonizing research and antiracist pedagogy in the context of doctoral training.

What tactics are high school educators using to teach about socio-political changes in the past and present? Five educators in the province of Alberta (two women, three men; four urban, one rural; four White, one Arab; four without visible religious garb, one Muslim in hijab) explored content they considered to be "radical" and how they teach about (and for) significant sociopolitical changes focused on making society hurt less. Coming from a perspective of symbolic evil, radical love, and radical imagination as inherent to beneficial social movements, the researchers used process and dramaturgical coding to analyze participant insights about decolonial and antiracist education as well as teaching for gender and sexual justice. Participants shared insights about the role of school context and teacher positionality, what might shape an educator to teach for radical change, as well as several tactics: operationalizing positionality, supplementing curriculum, challenging assumptions, subverting school rules, and addressing emotionality.

This conceptual piece uses Critical Race Theory (CRT) as a way to recognize systemic inequities within sorority and fraternity life (SFL) communities, and to advance meaningful change on college campuses. We engage histories, literature, and current events to aid practitioners and scholars in deeper considerations around antiracist education in action. Further, we provide an accompanying case study to offer practical considerations for SFL practitioners, campus administrators, and scholars seeking to engage antiracist work within these communities.

As sociologists of education, we're deeply concerned about the growing censorship in our schools and the attack on teaching the truth about our history and present-day inequality. We also recognize how an educational past mired in antiblack practices and policies remains with us today and thus why teachers are still faced with navigating censorship and constraints on what they know are critical and proven pedagogies. This article explores the continued need for "fugitive" practices to employ educational models that de-center Eurocentric narratives and center Black or other marginalized cultures and ways of knowing. We argue that educators committed to antiracist teaching can learn from the legacy of the art of Black teaching and how it was subversively taken up and put into practice by Black teachers over time (Gay, 2002; Givens, 2021; Walker, 2018).

Background -- Limited work has been done to integrate ethical leadership and anti-racist school leadership practice. Through narrative ethics, this paper links caring with race-consciousness to form a foundation for critical praxis. Purpose -- The authors address the limitations of caring leadership by arguing for a race-conscious narrative ethics that promotes communal responsibility for students, with specific attention to racialized and marginalized students. Research Design – This conceptual paper draws on caring theory, feminism, womanism, and culturally responsive leadership. The paper considers racism within a United States context, drawing from theory developed in additional contexts. Analysis – The paper builds from the limitations of caring theory and seeks alternative caring ethics from critiques and African-American historical struggles for sustainable and anti-racist praxis. Results -- The authors argue that predispositions toward caring among teachers and school leaders are insufficient for the project of anti-racist education because of uncritical assumptions of sameness, misplaced empathy, and the evasion of race and racism. The resulting impersonal caring reproduces racist power relations and reinforces standardized and competitive notions of responsibility for children, forestalling opportunities for collective action. Conclusions -- As an alternative to impersonal caring, the authors explore the possibilities of deepening leaders' engagement in race-conscious caring through the significance of experience, the quality of caring relations, and the value of narrative ethics. A key implication is that race-conscious caring is necessary but insufficient for the work of anti-racism unless it informs changed practices, structures, and systems. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
