Identity-based bullying (IBB) is behavior rooted in discrimination, where someone is targeted due to an actual or perceived social identity. Certain identities increase the likelihood of being bullied. Bullying based on discrimination can have detrimental impacts. Teachers can reduce bullying and contribute to a positive school climate, yet there…

This paper examines how Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DEIB) practices can help address educational inequalities, particularly those rooted in systemic racism. Drawing on Critical Race Theory (CRT), it argues that embedding DEIB into educational systems is essential for dismantling the barriers that perpetuate inequity. The paper…

This book draws on ethnographic studies in nine countries across six continents to examine young children's perspectives on their male and female teachers. Contributors from China, Brazil, Australia, South Africa, Israel, Turkey, Norway, the UK, and the USA present case studies based on early childhood education sites where both men and women…

Drawing on critical pedagogy, Black Feminist Thought, Critical Race Theory, and associated modes of inquiry, we (Lilian and Jerry) engaged in a series of reflective dialogic encounters over the last couple of years to consider issues of race and racism in our working lives as directors of an initial teacher education programme for adult,…

Research has widely documented the lack of educational resources and opportunities available to rural communities. Cognizant of the structural and spatial barriers facing rural communities, this study intentionally employed a critical race nepantlera methodology (CRNM) to mitigate the adverse effects of living in geographically isolated,…

Using Critical Race Theory and Critical Whiteness, this study examines how Whiteness shapes district leaders' reasoning regarding racially diversifying their teacher pipeline and how such reasoning may influence their practice. Specifically, we focus on five districts with demographic and geographic profiles often overlooked in the research (i.e.…

This study examined counselors' openness to discussing issues of race, ethnicity, and culture by setting (e.g., school, clinical mental health, and counselor trainee) using the Broaching Attitudes and Behavior Scale. School counselors and White counselors reported significantly higher mean scores on the "Avoidant" subscale, a measure of…

Inspired by the SAGE 2YC project, we, the authors, examined course outcome data by demographics, which led to engagement of faculty across campus. Although our introductory-level geology course had one of the highest "C or better" rates in the institution, when we examined course success by demographics, significant racial inequities…

Grounded by critical race and landscapes of practice perspectives, this study examined teacher candidates who were asked to use equity as a lens to describe students' literacy learning opportunities in their practicum sites. Analysis of this writing revealed wide variation in candidates' participation, including a group who regularly noticed…

In this paper, Matthew Cowley advances a theoretical approach toward higher education drawn from critical race theory (CRT) and Black Marxism. After an overview of CRT and Black Marxism, Cowley builds a working understanding of two recent (re)conceptualizations of race and class analysis that draw from both: (1) "economies of racism" and…

The identification and the evaluation of arguments are fundamental elements of critical thinking. However, the explicit promotion of these elements is virtually absent from university science courses. Much of the reason for this is that in most universities, across nearly all disciplines, instructors are required to see the conceptual content…

Research suggests there are numerous benefits gleaned from faculty interacting with students outside of the classroom. However, there is far less research on faculty-in-residence (FIR) experiences in general and Black FIRs in particular. Furthermore, there is no research that examines how FIRs promote institutional diversity, equity, and inclusion…

This study provides a nuanced look at the experiences of Black graduate students who engage with a Black cultural center (BCC) at a historically White institution in an urban center. Combining the theoretical perspectives of critical race theory and graduate developmental networks, the three main findings unearth how (1) the BCC staff act as…

The contributions, participation, and exploitation of Black people within science and science education are devalued within the cannon of science teaching and learning. This in part is due to the Eurocentric nature of science and education. As a result, Black youth participate in science regularly; however, it is overlooked, not recognized, and/or…

The author offers a creative braiding of stories about parenting, race, and language. The stories illuminate everyday literacies and related practices present in multilingual and multigenerational households as informed by critical race scholarship and pedagogies of the home. Implications for practice include questions for parents and educators in…
