Full Description
In this edited book sponsored by the ATE Diversity Committee, we invited teacher educators to engage in critical dialogue and reflection around theories, issues, complexities, and challenges of antiracist teacher education and to exchange critical ideas and theory/research-informed practices for preparing antiracist teachers. The audience for this book are teacher educators in all disciplinary areas and at all levels. It is also intended for administrators and policy makers leading teacher education programs at national or state levels. In light of the racial injustice and tension the country has witnessed and experienced recently, achieving racial justice is at the front and center of numerous conversations in schools, the workplace, and communities around the country. There is an urgent need for teacher educators to support the cause. This book is a direct response to such a call and is timely and much needed.
