The purpose of this paper is to discuss a racially based conflict that occurred in a speech-language pathology graduate program at a Historically Black University and how the program director, the university's chief diversity officer, the program faculty, and students…

Background/Context: This article explores how the classic U.S. educator effort to stay politically "nonpartisan" when teaching became particularly complicated in an era of spiking K-12 harassment, when government officials openly targeted and denigrated populations on the basis of race, national origin, gender, sexuality, and religion.…

Purpose: This study aims to focus on the regulation of emotions in critical literacy, its resulting racial oppression and students' response to emotional control. The authors examine a student discussion of a poem, looking specifically at the affective responses of students' interactions as these open possibilities for identifying ways that…

This qualitative instrumental case study addressed the problem of Black males not receiving the support they need in higher education to be academically successful. The study's purpose was to identify if any parts of the historically Black college or university (HBCU) experience could be replicated at non-HBCUs to increase Black male support. The…

The goal of this study was to gain a deeper understanding of how younger generations of Southeast Asian Americans, and particularly Vietnamese American women in Southern California, are navigating their gender, ethnicity, and bicultural identities that ultimately resulted in hyper selection of pharmaceutical science as a career path. Literature…

Focus on multiracially-identified college students has continued to gain momentum in contemporary educational research, along with public and academic awareness of this burgeoning population--which has given needed voice to the unique and nuanced experiences and needs central to multiracial students' lives. However, most recent scholarship has…

This study employs ethnographic methods to explore the ways that white American preservice teachers in two different "Social Contexts of Education" classes conceptualise "diversity" and use this term to accomplish discursive goals. Data collected from observation notes, interviews and written assignments suggest that…

In what some have called a 'post-racial' era, with the two-term election of the first African American president of the US, it is often assumed that pre-service and newly in-serviced millennial teachers would have an advanced equity consciousness. However, in this NSF-funded qualitative study that explored the equity consciousness of new teachers…

As emotions research in the field of second language acquisition continues to evolve, it is equally important to explore the impact of social--emotional variables that are specifically relevant to heritage language (HL) contexts. Anchoring on foundations in critical heritage language education (HLE), this study examines the discomforts of the HL…

In this exploratory study, we adopt corpus linguistic methods to quantify, contextualize and investigate race in translingual scholarship in US writing and rhetoric studies over the past decade. Results indicate that while race is mentioned minimally in the corpus, in instances where it is mentioned many scholars pay attention to…

"Resisting Divide-and-Conquer Strategies in Education: Pathways and Possibilities" examines the ways in which divide-and-conquer strategies operate in the American public education system. In U.S. education, these mechanisms are endemic and enduring, if not always evident. Coordinated, strategic, well-funded, politically-viable campaigns…

There is a paucity of counselling scholarship investigating the trends in writing about Black life and experiences in the US. The purpose of this study was to explore the topics and themes of the articles related to Black Americans, published in American Counseling Association (ACA)-affiliated journals over a span of 24 years. Accordingly, we…

Given the increasing concern about the scarcity of Dual Language Bilingual Education (DLBE) teachers, it is crucial to understand the trends in teacher retention and attrition from the perspective of DLBE teachers themselves. DLBE teachers departing from their jobs imposes a significant burden on schools and students and affects the implementation…

This study focuses on the development of a measurement instrument to identify Middle and High School mathematics and science teachers' beliefs about the main factors of underrepresentation of African American students in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) fields. The research method using the stages of instrument development…
