"This Is a White Space": On Restorative Possibilities of Hospitality in a Raced Space
Studies in Philosophy and Education, v37 n3 p247-256 May 2018
In a restorative classroom inspired by a vision of racial equity, race consciousness is a necessity and a restorative outcome is conceptualized in terms of a sustainable interdependent "right-relation," a species of racial justice. Yet, regardless of intent, the constructed space is white. Race-based inequity is reproduced as White students get more of everything from class than do students of Color. What made the space white? How might hospitality affect the restorative possibilities of and in the space? I explore these questions and reconceptualize "right-relation" as that which necessitates hospitality.
