Beadie, Nancy – Review of Research in Education, 2016
Studies of the rise of social science research in education typically focus on the Progressive Era, from 1890 to 1930, the period in which the American Educational Research Association (AERA) was founded.

Since the 1930s, federal housing policies and individual practices increased the spatial separation of whites and blacks.

Pérez, Michelle Salazar; Saavedra, Cinthya M. – Review of Research in Education, 2017
In this chapter, we call for onto-epistemological diversity in the field of early childhood education and care (ECEC).

Mainstream…

Gross, Jeffrey – CEA Forum, 2016
In theorizing how we should pedagogically approach African American literature, especially in courses for undergraduates, I argue that we have to move away from questions of what was or even what is African American literature and, instead, find ways to teach African American literature in both its historical contexts--artistic and political--and…
