Critical race theory has challenged whose truth is told in schools (Lynn & Parker, 2006). Private schools belonging to the National Association of Independent Schools have questioned what truth is taught in their schools ("NAIS -- Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging," n.d.). Concurrently, these schools face declining…

This article examines how Chinese international students develop a complex understanding of race and racism from a transnational perspective. Through semi-structured interviews and follow-up exchanges with 21 Chinese international undergraduates at a US public research university, the article argues that students' racial learning was jointly…

In the interdisciplinary field of education, critical race theory (CRT) is the predominant framework for studying racism. However, some have argued CRT lacks a racial theory and that CRT-education scholarship should examine how education "racializes" (i.e. contributes to making racialized categories). In this theoretical article, I…

This systematic literature review analyzed the theoretical frameworks and methodological approaches higher education researchers used to examine the intersections between geography and student college choice. The literature review was guided by Critical Race Spatial Analysis, a conceptual framework and methodological approach for studying the…

This paper explores reparative approaches to histories of schooling. We reflect on an ongoing research project that is attempting to construct a "people's history of schooling" in Bristol, England. The research aims to expand understandings of past and present conditions of racial and class injustices in education and how we are all…

Young Children of Color in the United States experience the effects of racism on a daily basis. There have been calls for anti-bias and anti-racist education across the field of education, yet most recommendations are based on older students or studies in laboratory settings. Additionally, state and local governments have enacted legislation…

In school-university partnership work, critical theories such as third space and funds of knowledge have been whitewashed by the predominantly white, female teacher and teacher educator workforces. In this essay, we present an intentionally and explicitly critical framework based on critical race theory, CritPartnership, that can guide…

Social ontology examines the nature and mechanisms in human society of concepts that pertain to various kinds of social collectivities. A pioneer in the development of this philosophical field, Mills theorised a social metaphysics of "racial constructivism" for modern philosophy in order to explain the enduring orthodoxies of its…

While there is increased attention to power, privilege, and access in mathematics education, conversations around race and disability are often left out of the conversation. Disability in mathematics continues to be studied with a lens that focuses on behavior, rather than attending to the situated and sociopolitical context in which teaching and…

Race and racism are central ideas in the conceptualization of social justice in the US and thus topics of fundamental importance within the social work discipline. Accredited social work schools must include race and racism education in their curricula. Social work pedagogical literature has historically lacked critical, consistent attention to…
