About this book

This edited volume explores and extends themes in contemporary educational research on teacher preparation and the evolution in social justice education to antiracist pedagogy. These times call for teacher education to reconsider how the work devoted to social justice is explicit and intentional about its commitment to a racially just society. What does it mean for teacher education to seize this moment to confront racism and inequities that continue to perpetuate in society and school? The book highlights efforts that are being augmented to prepare teacher candidates and future faculty to address systemic racism in their teaching practices. 

Reviews

ā€œThe breadth and depth of the critical social justice teaching topics covered in this co-edited volume challenge us to reimagine and enact teacher education for anti-racist pedagogy in this historical moment. The teacher educators and researchers contributing to this volume provide us with the skills, knowledge, and dispositions from their array of theoretical, conceptual, and methodological anti-racist pedagogy and critical social science research designs urgently necessary to disrupt white supremacist hegemony for transformative paradigmatic praxis and change in social justice teacher education.ā€(David I. HernĆ”ndez-Saca, Associate Professor, University of Northern IowaUSA)

ā€œThis edited book is an excellent contribution to  teacher educators who center equity, diversity, and inclusion at the core of what they do. The four sections of the book frame compelling and disrupting chapters which point to how teacher education can be re-conceptualized to dismantle the educational systems that have traditionally marginalized and oppressed equity-deserving groups.ā€ (Steve Sider, Associate Dean, Professorand Director, Centre for Leading Research in Education, Wilfrid Laurier UniversityCanada)
