Despite a perceived post-racist era prevalent in various forms of social discourse, racial injustice is still perpetuated throughout the United States. This conceptual article explores the ways white supremacy is still prevalent in counselor education as well as ways to disrupt white supremacy in counselor education.

In recent years, issues of race, racism and social justice have garnered increased attention across the nation. Although some aspects of social justice, particularly cultural sensitivity and test bias, have received similar attention within the field of educational measurement, sharp focus of racism has alluded the field.

The national demand for social justice, racial equality, and criminal justice reform rightfully and painfully continues to sweep the consciousness of this nation. Community colleges were founded on educational excellence, opportunity, and access and should reflect principles of equity, justice, and community. This mission calls upon us, the most…

In this tribute to Patricia Carini's lifework and her influence on our work, we wrestle with a challenging question: How do we understand and hold onto a focus on the individual as a key practice of education as liberation, given the ways that a radical centering of the individual has buoyed systems of racial oppression? We end with the kind of…

In this essay, told from my perspective as a white woman, I spend time critically analyzing the caricatures of racist white women as I hold them up against stories of actual white women. My goal is illuminate how stereotypes of white racist women serve as a normative yardstick for the construction of another kind of white woman: the antiracist…

Our essay provides a provocation supporting the special issue of the "International Journal of Qualitative Studies in Education's" titled "Why antiracism and critical whiteness now?"

Reflexivity, defined as the critical analysis of how one's identity and values influence their scholarship, has been underscored as a crucial element of antioppressive scholarship. Despite its importance, reflexivity, and particularly its documentation, remains relatively uncommon in school psychology scholarship. In the following commentary, we…

This paper considers what it could mean to say that epistemologies and methodologies are racially just or unjust. It has been argued that this has nothing to do with whether an individual researcher is racist: he or she could be anti-racist but still use an epistemology that is racially biased. To explore this issue, some pioneering research by…

Across the United States, racist, hate-filled rhetoric, attitudes, and behaviors are daily occurrences. Events like officer-involved shootings of unarmed Black men, women, and non-binary individuals, along with the increase in white supremacist and nationalist groups, have cumulatively created a climate of fear and mistrust. This fear and mistrust…

I use Toni Morrison's "Paradise" as a backdrop for framing a "Black Liberatory Fantasy" (Martin et al., 2019) that is rooted in what Dumas and ross ("Urban Education," 51(4):415-442, 2016) have conceptualized as BlackCrit. The goal of the current undertaking is to evaluate anecdotes of this working idea of paradise,…

In this article, we argue that mainstream science education is contaminated by neoliberal values and functions in the service of political domination and exploitation and that a neoliberal and exploitative science education does not contribute to the building of a sustainable and just world. The work from Paulo Freire and Enrique Dussel underpin…

In a justice-oriented antiracist assessment process, attention to the disruption of white supremacy must occur at every stage--from construct articulation to score reporting. An important step in the assessment development process is the item review stage often referred to as Bias/Fairness and Sensitivity Review. I argue that typical approaches to…

In this conceptual essay, we weave concepts of critical race theory, joy, [anti-]disciplinarity, and humanization toward a critique of the disciplinary organization of teacher preparation program curricula through what we term a pedagogy of humanizing co-creatorship. In this essay, we seek to position disciplinarity as needed, but find that…

Anti-racist and anti-oppressive supervision remains a burgeoning area of scholarship and research within the counselor education nomenclature.
