This article examines the sport of swimming to demonstrate how systems of racial privilege and inequality are built. I use Ben Carrington's (2010) sporting racial project as a tool to understand how race is constructed through sporting practices by examining early-twentieth century texts produced by swimming coaches, physical educators, and sports…

This study examined bidirectional changes in adolescents' awareness of inequality and race consciousness between 2017 and 2018 in the USA and whether discriminatory experiences informed developmental pathways. The sample (N = 2645; Mage = 14.6, SD = 2.14; 56.5% female; > 0.01% transgender and gender diverse) was White (35.8%), Latinx (31.4%),…

In this article, we discuss using race-focusing and reimaging as a metatheoretical approach to be used during the process of theory building, expansion, and adaptation. To do so, we demonstrate how, over the last decade, the use of race-focusing and reimaging approaches has advanced our understanding of the racialized nature of research in…

In this essay, I examine coloniality as a racializing force within international education curricula. I focus on the British-developed Cambridge Assessment International Education (CAIE) curriculum, previously known as the Cambridge International Education (CIE) curriculum. Using the CAIE as a specific case, I discuss how international curricula…

In this conceptual paper, the author argues that equity research in mathematics education is a genre that operates according to certain implicit ideological and rhetorical rules and assumptions--or discursive formations--that form how one can think about equity and inequity. One such rule that forms the basis of this paper is the axiom of…

Our world is viewed through a variety of lenses depending on perspective, previous exposure, values, and personal philosophy. Counselor educators might be perceived as "worldview" experts given their educational training and required coursework in multicultural counseling. Through a pilot study, the researchers explored White counselor…

Deficit narratives about Blackness are embedded in research, discourse, and policies as policymakers and researchers theorize about differences in schooling outcomes between Black students and their peers. We offer a counterstory to prevailing conceptualizations of student absenteeism by arguing that they center racialized and deficit narratives…

Adolescence is a critical developmental period that is marked by drastic changes in face recognition, which are reflected in patterns of bias (i.e., superior recognition for some individuals compared to others). Here, we evaluate how race is perceived during face recognition and whether adolescents exhibit an own-race bias (ORB). We conducted a…

In this essay, we aim to enrich the racial discourses we engage in with people across various fields and political spheres by focusing on the intersection of institutional violence and trauma. Whereas others view race-based scholarship and discourses as unnecessarily political, divisive and threatening, we contend that centering race in our work…

Peggy McIntosh's ("White privilege and male privilege: A personal account of coming to see correspondences through work in women's studies," Working Paper 189, Wellesley Center for Research on Women, 1988) list of 50 racial privileges, which purportedly benefit persons of white skin colour, has had enormous impact on social science…

American colleges and universities seek to provide education and opportunity to their students, and to support a more informed and equitable society. Career education offices in higher education spaces face increasing pressure to lead life and career preparation efforts for a diverse student body. At the same time, as a result of European…

In this metasynthesis, we examined 21 highly cited qualitative studies on family literacy scholarship conducted by Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) scholars from 1981 to 2019. This metasynthesis integrates findings to present a counterstory that challenges dominant narratives in family literacy. By amplifying often overlooked or…

Scholars encourage physical educators to consider a variety of factors before they assign a peer tutor to a student with a disability in their classes. To date, however, no scholars have encouraged physical educators to consider the racial parity, or lack thereof, between prospective peer tutors and students with disabilities. Therefore, this…

This paper analyses relationships between whiteness and damage in the university classroom through a focus on two contemporary areas of critical education in Canada: raising white racial consciousness and truth and reconciliation between Indigenous and non-Indigenous people. First, whiteness is damage-producing -- it orients anti-racist education…

This research builds upon scholarship of critical theorists and critical whiteness studies. The "invisibility" of whiteness has been increasingly acknowledged and attended to in counseling psychology. Further, prominent scholars have continuously urged the field of counseling psychology to acknowledge race as a psychological…
