Scales of Educational Resistance Practices against Critical Race Theory "Bans"
Educational Studies: Journal of the American Educational Studies Association, v60 n5 p511-529 2024
Numerous states have attempted to enact sweeping curricular bans targeting Critical Race Theory (CRT) to prevent educators from teaching content that challenges the white-Eurocentric curriculum of American schooling. In this paper, we build on arguments that curricular bans are not new to education, nor is the resistance enacted by educators to curricular bans. Through centering how educators in three different states are navigating the various tightness of spaces in their resistance, we look to provide a pathway forward for those looking to enact resistance to current (and future) curricular bans. This analysis contributes to how teacher educators and educational foundations scholars can think about teacher activism and resistances as pedagogical praxis.
