Glick, Stephanie – Compare: A Journal of Comparative and International Education, 2023
This paper conceptualises one possible antidote to the conditions that produce public mass gun violence (PMGV) in the United States. I begin by illuminating how PMGV is a backlash to the nation's 'founding' on the violent divisions of colonisation and coloniality. I then inquire: If PMGV is a reflection of a deep societal wound, what methodologies…

Wise, Crystal N.; Jones, Brittany L.; Thompson, Blake A.; Halvorsen, Anne-Lise – Social Studies and the Young Learner, 2023
Social studies in general, and Black history in particular, are marginalized at the elementary level. The ways Black history has been taught are problematic, focusing on either celebrating civil rights heroes or lamenting the oppressive treatment of Black people, thus flattening the rich and varied histories of Black people. An almost singular…

Keegan, Patrick; Gough, Keith – Social Studies and the Young Learner, 2023
Some barriers to teaching Black history in elementary classrooms include inadequate teacher preparation and the misguided view that elementary students are too young to learn the unvarnished truth about America's historical injustices. Legislative efforts to prevent teachers from discussing race-related topics labeled "divisive"…

McClure, Patricia S. – Whiteness and Education, 2023
Race shapes the policies and history of the United States.

This qualitative framework analysis study examines the language of social studies…

Bousalis, Rina – Social Studies, 2023
Southern United States folk music is rich in not only sound, but in voices of the past.

Nevbahar Ertas; Andrew N. McKnight – Policy Futures in Education, 2024
Critical Race Theory (CRT) has recently been positioned as a serious problem requiring urgent policy response among partisan media outlets.

David C. Powell – Teaching Public Administration, 2024
Public administration has a long tradition of close connections to the field of political science. As the field of public administration evolved from a basic politics administration dichotomy, it became evident that the distinction between politics and administration was nebulous at best. As such, public affairs students need exposure to, and…

Kimberly Powell – International Journal of Multicultural Education, 2024
In this article, I discuss how walking as mapping serves as a method for observing and disrupting spatial geopolitics, opening possibilities for alternative systems of living. I explore three theoretical perspectives--posthumanism, Indigenous and decolonializing theories of land, and Black geography--that, while distinct, nonetheless share some…

Background: Drawing from research with 11th-grade history students, the authors illustrate how students' racial/ethnic and language experiences influence their analysis of Mexican American discrimination.

Goodman, Cecil H. – Journal of Outdoor Recreation, Education, and Leadership, 2022
This paper argues that the adoption of theories of racial capitalism as a framework for analysis can help shift dominant pedagogies in Outdoor Adventure Education (OAE) to not just be more inclusive, but to reimagine ways that communities of outdoor education, recreation, and leadership can build awareness of the reproduction of the Wilderness and…

Join the authors of this book in starting a movement of hope and possibility for an antiracist child care and early childhood education system.
