Infos

Racism in the Enacted Curriculum chronicles the work of experienced and skilled antiracist educators to explore why even the best-intentioned curricula for resisting racism often fall short. Featuring case studies from different educational contexts across the United States, as well as the author's own experiences as a classroom teacher in Chicago Public Schools, it highlights the challenges and frustrations faced by teachers working to implement antiracist curriculum nationwide. To meet these challenges, the author develops a theory rooted in posthumanist and new materialist thought, which understands the role of ideas as agential forces in and of themselves. Included as one of these agents is anti-Black racism, an adaptive force that requires the adaptation of antiracism to resist it. The book concludes with a practical discussion of how teachers might use such a theory to better respond and adapt curricula to combat anti-Black racism. A forward-thinking and timely volume, this book will appeal to researchers and educators interested in modern curriculum theory, posthumanism, teacher education, antiracism, and qualitative research methodology.
