Every instructor has experienced teaching failures in the classroom. We often conceptualize those experiences as emanating from self, and sometimes we surmise the disconnect is on our student's end. However, rarely do we consider the impact of interference from an ill-spirited colleague, in my case, ill-spirited, racist colleagues. Professors of…

U.S. higher education was built on slavery and land theft. It has historically and contemporarily excluded communities of color from full participation systematically. Therefore, an educational debt is owed and needs to be repaid by Predominantly White Institutions of higher education.

This study used content analysis to explore the way in which primary grade school textbooks in Georgia cover multicultural content.

Although the current COVID-19 crisis is felt globally, at the local level, COVID-19 has disproportionately affected poor, highly segregated African American communities in Chicago. To understand the emerging pattern of racial inequality in the effects of COVID-19, we examined the relative burden of social vulnerability and health risk factors. We…

This article is an effort to build on academic theories of race and antiracist education. Using a Gramscian theoretical framework that emphasizes perspectives from organic intellectuals, this article puts the academic literature on race and adult education in conversation with the theory generated on race from select U.S. working-class organic…

The long-taught history of social work may be missing an important part of its root system. Groups of religious sisters were doing work similar to early English settlement houses years before Toynbee Hall, yet were left out of the history possibly due to their gender, religion, and ethnicity. Using original historic writings and illustrations,…

Pillow explores complexities of witnessing in research linking theoretical oppression to inadequate, arrogant witnessing.

This article presents a pedagogical approach for disrupting epistemic injustice. In it, A. C. Nikolaidis first demonstrates that different forms of epistemic injustice -- testimonial, hermeneutical, and contributory -- are the result of limited or distorted conceptual resources and then argues that concept proliferation can be a promising…

Nonprobative but related photos can increase the perceived truth value of statements relative to when no photo is presented ("truthiness"). In two experiments, we tested whether truthiness generalizes to credibility judgments in a forensic context. Participants read short vignettes in which a witness viewed an offence. The vignettes were…

Kim and Opfer (2017) report data that demonstrate children produce a negatively accelerating (e.g., logarithmic) response pattern in the unbounded number-line task. This pattern of results is the opposite of those generally reported for the unbounded number-line task (e.g., Cohen & Blanc-Goldhammer, 2011; Cohen & Sarnecka, 2014). We…

Research has examined teacher attitudes, knowledge, and stigma towards inclusion of autistic children in mainstream schools. Less focus has been given to these beliefs among parents. This is problematic as parents are important in the implementation of inclusion and fostering a positive school environment. The current study examined differences in…

Which behavioral and visual information do teachers rely on when judging relevant characteristics of their students and which cues should they rely on?

Method: I surveyed 733…
