As anti-oppressive pedagogies gain increasing prominence in teacher education, there is a need to examine how preservice teachers understand and implement anti-oppressive frameworks. The role of the university supervisor is uniquely well-positioned to allow for insight into preservice teacher pedagogical practices; however, this role is grossly…

Informed by the current scholarly conversations surrounding linguistic racism, this paper investigates anti-racist translingual practices within the context of a college multilingual writing classroom.

In response to urgent calls for teaching that is culturally affirming, scholars have developed a myriad of images of culturally sustaining (and related) pedagogies (CSPs).

It has most commonly been attempted through a 'truth-telling' approach; it is assumed that if the truth of past injustices is made known, then justice can be acted upon within contemporary society. 'Truth telling'--and disciplinary approaches to learning about…

The Zeitgeist of our time calls on social workers and the social work profession to reconsider the ways in which we practice, teach, and learn. The COVID-19 pandemic and the 2021 reawakening of the racial and social justice movements profoundly influence how social workers approach the directive from our accrediting body (CSWE) calling on us to…

In this dissertation, I explore the ways in which childhood is represented in three Korean American narratives for youths: An Na's "the Fold," Lyla Lee "I'll Be the One," and Tae Keller's "When You Trap a Tiger"--to theorize the concept of "Otherhood," that is, a childhood in which the experience of being…

First-year composition (FYC) has historically functioned as a space for furthering the linguistic assimilation of students into "appropriate" forms of communication in academic spaces. While often going unstated in course/writing program goals, Standardized American English (SAE) has typically been the language variety elevated in FYC…

In response to social developments and the civil rights movement in the 1960s, the social work profession began to develop a formal identity which included a commitment to social justice. Today, that concept of social justice includes diversity, equity, inclusion, and anti-racism in education and practice. Teachers and researchers have rarely…
