Doctoral education is a time of profound identity shaping. Educational leadership continues to be dominated by assumptions about Whiteness and maleness as well as calls to center social justice in the educational leadership curriculum. In this paper, I describe the critical pedagogical approaches and underpinnings I used in the genesis,…

How can educators create space for students to practice making the worlds we are trying to collectively build? Inspired by genealogies that are grounded in and emerge from social movements, this paper uplifts the possibilities, tensions, and new questions that emerge when we take seriously the role of our classroom pedagogies. The authors offer a…

Employment is a defining aspect of adult life as well as a protective factor for youth involved in the juvenile justice system, but employment rates for juvenile-justice-involved youth are substantially lower than for their noninvolved peers. Interventions have been developed to increase employment for juvenile-justice-involved youth, yet few…

Globally, young people are asking questions about social responsibility. California addresses this in the second draft of its updated mathematics framework, still unreleased as this article goes to press. It defines these questions as authentic, suggesting that classrooms "include, at times . . . contexts students can engage with as a way to…

With an increasingly diverse UK population and differences in outcomes and experiences, educational psychologists (EPs) need actively to adhere to and promote principles of equality and equity. Although there is limited engagement with social justice issues in the professional and ethical guidelines in the UK, there has been a growing body of…

More than two-thirds of U.S. adults fall below recommended guidelines for physical activity (PA). One possible explanation for this is decreased feelings of self-efficacy and heightened discomfort in exercise settings among persons in special populations. Increasing social justice-based education and experiences is important for creating an…

An educational praxis that is concerned with citizen formation ought to aim at the development of critical consciousness and critical thinking, but little research has addressed the dynamics of critical consciousness in mathematical modeling activities. This study aims to characterise and understand the manifestation of critical thinking and…

This article draws on my time as a classroom teacher and my experience as a museum educator affiliated with the Center for Restorative History to argue for learning that centers relationships over education that centers measurement. The world we live in is shaped by a logic that prioritizes categorization, regulation, and metrics measured against…

I begin this article with an anecdote to highlight how mestizaje is an anti-Black discourse. In the next section I theorize about "mestizaje" as an anti-Black discourse. There is a relatively new body of scholarship within Black studies called "Afropessimism." This intellectual field has central to it the ideas of the…

The purpose of this quantitative correlational study was to determine if and to what extent organizational justice predicts nonsupervisory support staff's intent to stay in four-year higher education institutions in the United States of America. Greenberg's organizational justice framework served as a theoretical foundation, and the Justice Scale…

Drawing connections between traditional notions of academic language and literacy and long-standing systems of marginalization and exclusion, in this article, we invite you to (re)read and (re)story early literacy in the pursuit of linguistic justice.

In this response to the 46th Annual Distinguished Faculty Lecture by Valerie Miles-Tribble at the Graduate Theological Union, I reflect on four questions: (1) What practices can help us cultivate and restore hope when our hope inevitably wanes? (2) How do we vigorously, even relentlessly expose injustices (and our complicities with them) even…

The authors begin by providing context about who they are as rural educators and scholars and how their positionalities and experiences informed their…

Duoethnography is an emerging branch of autoethnography in which dialogic narratives help co-create meaning from lived experiences influenced by or reflected in larger social or cultural issues (Norris & Sawyer, 2012). This excerpt, from a larger duoethnography project, invites readers to join in a dialogue on the how, when, and who is…
