Some Strange Magic: The Disruption of the Whiteness of Castle Play through Improvisation
Tanner, Sam; Miller, Erin
Critical Questions in Education, v9 n2 p84-99 Sum 2018
This conceptual framework investigates the symbol of the castle in the American imagination as one site of memory that contributes to white supremacy through childhood play. The authors conceive of long-form improvisation in relation to childhood play to imagine new pedagogical installments that might teach children to resist the hegemonic symbol of the castle.
