This book will help readers develop knowledge of the history of DEI in education in order to better understand the current debates and counter the opposition with informed, strategic actions.
This book invites readers to reimagine a movement for educational justice, one in which justice workers recognize imperialist white supremacist capitalist cis-hetero patriarchy as the broad, interlocking system of domination that continues to oppress historically marginalized students, whose rights are presently being vehemently opposed by those who fear an egalitarian society that no longer privileges whiteness. This work also examines bans on “wokeness,” illustrating the regressive and assaultive nature of current attacks. Important, too, it offers guidance for those seeking direction about how to advance educational justice for all students whose rights are being threatened.

Altheria L. Caldera is a consultant, teacher educator, and scholar whose work centers on racial equity while also recognizing how racism intersects with other forms of discrimination, such as gender, language, and socio-economic status. After earning a Ph.D. in Curriculum Studies, she began her career working at the university level with pre-service and in-service teachers. Over the last eight years, she has published nearly two dozen peer-reviewed articles and book chapters and several editorials--all related to diversity, equity, and inclusion in education. Some of these publications can be found on her Google Scholar page. One of her articles, “Woke Pedagogy: A Framework for Teaching and Learning,” has been downloaded more than 22,000 times. Her edited book, Ourselves in Our Work: Black Women Scholars of Black Girlhood, was recently published. Moreover, she has conducted many workshops as a DEI consultant and given numerous scholarly presentations as an academic.
