Description
This book is written by a diverse group of educators who spent the better part of one year learning about and implementing antiracist pedagogy. We hope our work is inspiring to other educators who want to learn more about antiracist pedagogy; more than that, we hope it provides a tool to engage with and speak back against repressive policies that seek to push out antiracist pedagogies. We worry that antiracist pedagogy has become a buzzword in scholarship and public discourse — simultaneously feared, silenced, hated, misunderstood, misused, and appropriated. We believe antiracist pedagogy has a place in democratic education. Therefore, we consider this book to be a clarifying project. In it, we provide precise definitions and concrete examples to demonstrate how antiracist pedagogy is a way of teaching and learning that engages past failures of American democracy in order to inspire students to take action toward fulfilling the promise of American democracy.

Erin Miller and Angela Walker and their colleagues hoped to write a book that would support and embolden antiracist educators--in our day-to-day work with students, as well as in our defense of antiracist pedagogies and democratic education against repressive policies. They succeeded. This book is wonderful and indispensable.

Anti-Racist Pedagogy in Action is an instant classic! Dr. Erin Miller and Dr. Angela Walker masterfully guide the reader through an intellectually invigorating thought-process on the role of Antiracist Pedagogy in Democratic Education. This book fills an important void in the conversation on this topic. I highly endorse this much-needed contribution to the field of education!

Drawing from generations of “exquisite, honest pedagogy,” Antiracist Pedagogy in Action: Curriculum Development from the Field, is the truth! This engaging and highly accessible book make it readily apparent that antiracist pedagogy is best explored in unscripted, generative, and relational ways. Compellingly, this book invites and challenge educators to complicate their understandings of anti-racist pedagogies Readers will be immersed in pointed, personal, and transformation examples from teachers and teacher educators. This book is essential reading for aspiring and experienced anti-racist pedagogues alike.
