Produktbeschreibung
As educators, how do we challenge and interrupt the social construction of whiteness in ourselves, in the classroom, in schools, and in the wider society? Coming from diverse backgrounds, the contributors in this volume draw on their own well-examined experiences of race, racism, and whiteness in developing effective antiracist pedagogies and classroom activities that interrupt and contest whiteness. They have explored their own lives from the selective position of their own memories and have traced the ways in which their assumptions - which they use to mediate and interpret the world around them - have been constituted by public ideological forces. They have collaborated with others in building alternative pedagogies and support systems, enabling them to teach, and at the same time, reflect on the assumptions behind and the effects of their teaching. The result is the work collected here.
Rezensionen
«With complexity and caution, this collection of essays illustrates a range of personal, pedagogical, and political changes made possible when critically addressing White privilege in the classroom. Virginia Lea, Judy Helfand, and the contributors to this volume have produced a helpful and long overdue insightful resource, for teaching against racial injustice.» (Kevin K. Kumashiro, Center for Anti-Oppressive Education, Author of 'Against Common Sense: Teaching and Learning Toward Social Justice')
«'Identifying Race and Transforming Whiteness in the Classroom' is a stimulating and thought provoking set of essays by a diverse group of educators. The book focuses on how we can actively transform perspectives on whiteness that result in inequities and injustices in ourselves, in our curriculum, in our pedagogy, and, ultimately, in U. S. society and across the globe.» (Ann Berlak and Sekani Moyenda, Co-authors of 'Taking it personally: Racism in classrooms from Kindergarten to College')
