Reckoning with the Whiteness of English Education

"This book contains a variety of practical implementations of teaching and learning in English education across ELA, literacy, and ESL. Such engagement sets out to directly confront persistent iterations of whiteness in English education through advancing antiracist dispositions and practices with the aim of disrupting the reproduction of white supremacy in curriculum and instruction. The authors of the chapters in this book are educators and scholars who describe and analyze various teaching projects located in K-12 and teacher education contexts. Dialogic reactions to these chapters are also offered throughout the book by acclaimed and experienced educators to further extend and complicate thought and action around themes emerging from the work. Ultimately, the intention of this work is to encourage a more pedagogical view of how to engage teacher and student thought, feeling, and action in ways that foster conversation for combating white supremacy in English education across schools and society"--
