Informed by concepts of native speakers, racial nativism, and language socialization theory, this study documented the existence of the native speaker fallacy (Phillipson, 1992, "Linguistic imperialism." Oxford: Oxford University Press) in a university-level Japanese and Chinese program in the United States. Specifically, the researcher…

In this time of heightened political and social unrest in the United States, the higher education classroom has become a space where preservice art education students can discuss issues of identity and social interaction, including stories of "surviving" holiday dinners.

Specifically, this study details the accounts of how two Black-biracial scholars, who don't fit into the rigid…

The population of multiracial youth in the United States is expected to grow in the coming decades (exceeding 11% by 2060). In this article, we aim to convince child development researchers who do not usually examine race and ethnicity in their work to consider multiracial youth. We describe ways in which youth from more than one racial background…

The study was conducted to explore the influences of parenting styles on racial identity and academic achievement of biracial children in the Southeastern region of the United States.

Following the end of apartheid in 1994, the ANC government placed education at the centre of its plans to build a nonracial and more equitable society.

In this study, I engage in the intercultural phenomenological analysis of discovering and naming marginalized and undervalued desires in a teacher education space. Based on Deleuze and Guattari's (1987) conceptualization of desire, I challenge the understanding of desire as an absence or a lack. I focus on an Asian American female student's story…
