The aim of this article is to contribute to the under-researched topic of racism in Finnish early childhood education and care (ECEC) by posing three questions: What kind of racism do ECEC teachers recognize in ECEC? How are teachers committed to opposing racism in their work? What kind of obstacles to committing to antiracism are recognized in…

In a highly technological society, teachers need to help students grow as technoskeptical citizens who can think deeply about technologies to consider their collateral, unintended, and disproportionate effects on society. This article presents a technoskeptical Inquiry Design Model (IDM) lesson where upper elementary students critically inquire…

Grounded in Critical Multiracial Theory and notions of performativity, this study utilized Interpretive Phenomenological Analysis to examine 12 multiracial undergraduates' embodied experiences of monoracism within dance-based contexts at a predominantly White institution. Interviewees described the relative diversity of dance spaces, internalized…

Social work education, practice and research is rightly composed of a wide variety of behavioral and social science theories, practice perspectives and models, and various ethical principles and values. Positions that lend themselves to empirical analysis will, over time and with appropriate research, sort themselves out into views that are…

In this article, we utilized Charles Mills' "racial contract" and Derrick Bell's "interest-convergence" as theories to anchor our understanding of the exploitation of Black death to bolster institutional DEI efforts. We argue that mainstream forms of sociopolitical progress have emerged in the wake of Black death. In essence,…

The Western seizure of 'legitimate' knowledge has been widely criticised and seen the growth of initiatives such as Decolonising the Curriculum Movement. Challenging Eurocentric knowledge has always been onerous, given its entanglement with power structures. Using semi-structured interviews with nine Muslim academics working in British academia…

This article examines the ways non-Black Latino men teachers understand their relationality to (anti)blackness in urban education. While the dominant discourse surrounding men of color teachers presumes an innate allyship among all men and boys of color, the Latino men in this study describe being positioned as multicultural punishers for Black…

Urban school leaders can support mathematics instruction that acknowledges and sustains students' racialized and cultured ways of knowing and being.

The framework introduced three points of analysis: (1) an analysis of referent, (2) an analysis of design, and (3) an analysis of reception. This framework focused on developing a curriculum that supported a critical, interdisciplinary study of monuments.…

The "outside" variables such as life history, sociology, and related can become connected to the "inside" variables particularly in the voluntary and involuntary parts of the brain. This article does not try to create a biological determinism of people especially those who are female and people of color. This author wants to…

Moreover, literature on the peer review process in science education, in particular, does not foreground equity as a subject of study. The present study…
