Katrina Liu: Preparing White Teachers for Anti-Racist Education, Gebunden

Klappentext

"This book is for any of us who refuse to retreat from the work of anti-racism in education and society. Teachers deserve resources like this to inform their practices in pursuit of equity."

-H. Richard Milner IV, Professor, Vanderbilt University, USA

"This book fills an often identified but rarely addressed scholarly gap. In this text, readers will find both strategies for preparing teachers for racially diverse classrooms and essential practices for inviting novice educators to interrogate their assumptions." 

-Catherine Compton-Lilly, Professor, University of South Carolina, Columbia, USA

"A timely, critical, and compelling book that addresses the need to rethink, reimagine, and restructure preservice and in-service teacher education to illuminate the anti-racist, educational dreams and possibilities educators can achieve."

-Nathaniel Bryan, Associate Professor, University of Texas at Austin, USA

Using a framework combining Critical Race Theory and Critical Reflection and Generativity for Transformative Praxis, this book examines both how white preservice teachers conceive of race and racism (habits of mind) and how they react when dealing with race and racism in the classroom (patterns of acting). With firm grounding in real-world data, the authors detail ways in which teacher educators can recognize and deal with preservice teachers who cannot-or will not-translate their reflections on race into actions against racism.
