Overview
Learn how to disrupt the reproduction of White supremacy in curriculum and instruction. This volume directly confronts persistent iterations of whiteness in English education through advancing antiracist dispositions and practices. Readers will find a variety of practical implementations of teaching and learning in English Language Arts, English literacy, and English as a Second Language. Chapter authors are educators who describe various teaching projects located in K–12 and teacher education contexts. Each chapter includes a dialogic reaction by an acclaimed and experienced scholar to further extend thought around complex themes. Reckoning With the Whiteness of English Education encourages a more pedagogical view of how to engage teacher and student thought, feeling, and action in ways that combat White supremacy in English education across schools and society. Book Features: Illustrates how and why whiteness enables racism and argues that racism harms both students of color and white students. Describes teaching projects from K–12 and teacher education classrooms that include dialogical exchanges with racially and intellectually diverse scholars. Addresses a range of topics, including using children’s books and young adult literature, teaching emergent multilingual students, developing curriculum, and preparing teachers. Provokes readers to imagine nuanced teaching and learning that invites students into antiracist values and dispositions that resist white supremacy.
