This paper contributes to international scholarship on racial literacy in teacher education. Specifically, we consider filmic counter stories as bodies that carry an affective charge with the potential to ignite dialogic and embodied/emotional learning.

OBE is a system of education giving priority to ends, purpose, accomplishments, and results. All…
