Abstract

Taken together, the three chapters in Part II demonstrate that intersectionality greatly determines both the struggles that teachers of color experience in the classroom as well as how teachers of color choose to respond to those struggles. Moreover, the intersecting inequalities shaping their struggles go beyond the race, class, and gender of the teachers themselves to include the race, class, and gender of their students, their colleagues, and, in the case of the Asian American teachers Flores interviewed, their students’ parents as well.
