Building Just Ecologies for Educators and Young Children
Young Exceptional Children, v22 n2 p101-111 Jun 2019
A good deal of scholarship on social justice in early childhood education explores antibias curriculum and pedagogy at the classroom level. Antibias education refers to a specific approach to social justice teaching that was first developed by a group of educators in California in the 1980s (DermanSparks & A.B.C. Task Force, 1989). Since then, the framework has been revised, expanded, and updated, most recently with the 2010 publication of "Anti-Bias Education for Young Children and Ourselves". In this article, the author argues that any commitment to antibias education is incomplete without an attendant commitment to addressing the structural inequities faced by the early childhood teaching workforce. "Anti-bias teachers are committed to the principle that every child deserves to develop to [their] fullest potential"
