Book Teaching Race in Perilous Times

Download or read book Teaching Race in Perilous Times written by Jason E. Cohen and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2021-03-01 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The college classroom is inevitably influenced by, and in turn influences, the world around it. In the United States, this means the complex topic of race can come into play in ways that are both explicit and implicit. Teaching Race in Perilous Times highlights and confronts the challenges of teaching race in the United States—from syllabus development and pedagogical strategies to accreditation and curricular reform. Across fifteen original essays, contributors draw on their experiences teaching in different institutional contexts and adopt various qualitative methods from their home disciplines to offer practical strategies for discussing race and racism with students while also reflecting on broader issues in higher education. Contributors examine how teachers can respond productively to emotionally charged contexts, recognize the roles and pressures that faculty assume as activists in the classroom, focus a timely lens on the shifting racial politics and economics of higher education, and call for a more historically sensitive reading of the pedagogies involved in teaching race. The volume offers a corrective to claims following the 2016 US presidential election that the current moment is unprecedented, highlighting the pivotal role of the classroom in contextualizing and responding to our perilous times.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When it comes to teaching about race, journalism and mass communication faculty from various backgrounds must deliver instruction that acknowledges the challenges surrounding the topic while facilitating the learning of undergraduate and graduate students. Race should be a topic infused across the curriculum at the undergraduate and graduate level in institutions large and small, public and private. This takes a holistic approach with authors from a range of racial and ethnic backgrounds at small, mid-size, and large research institutions offering their insights. More than teaching tips, the chapters here offer wisdom grounded in the research of the scholarship of teaching and learning, which allows scholars to both inform their teaching with empirical research and share successful pedagogy with others.

Book Practicing Oral History with Military and War Veterans

Download or read book Practicing Oral History with Military and War Veterans written by Sharon D. Raynor and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-12-30 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Practicing Oral History with Military and War Veterans focuses predominantly on conducting oral history with men and women of recent wars and military conflicts. The book provides a structured methodology for building interest and trust among veterans to conduct interviews, design oral history projects, and archive and use these oral history interviews. It includes background on the evolution of veterans oral history, the nuts and bolts of interviewing, ethical guidelines, procedures, and the overall value of veterans oral history. The methodology emphasizes how memory evolves over the years - when a veteran becomes more distant from the events of war, the experiences become individualized and personalized for each veteran based on location, time, place, and purpose of their service. The book also aims to improve understanding of the personal, ethical, and psychological issues involved in listening compassionately to veterans’ stories that may contain issues of trauma, gender, socio-economics, race, dis/ability, and ethnicity. Practicing Oral History with Military and War Veterans is an invitation to community scholars, students, oral historians, and families of veterans to actively participate in the oral history process and to embrace methodology that may help with designing and conducting oral history projects and interviewing war veterans.

Book Living Alterities

    Book Details:
  • Author : Emily S. Lee
  • Publisher : SUNY Press
  • Release : 2014-04-01
  • ISBN : 143845015X
  • Pages : 302 pages

Download or read book Living Alterities written by Emily S. Lee and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 2014-04-01 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Philosophers consider race and racism from the perspective of lived, bodily experience. Broadening the philosophical conversation about race and racism, Living Alterities considers how people’s racial embodiment affects their day-to-day lived experiences, the lived experiences of individuals marked by race interacting with and responding to others marked by race, and the tensions that arise between different spheres of a single person’s identity. Drawing on phenomenology and the work of thinkers such as Frantz Fanon, Maurice Merleau-Ponty, and Iris Marion Young, the essays address the embodiment experiences of African Americans, Muslims, Asian Americans, Latinas, Jews, and white Americans. The volume’s focus on specific situations, temporalities, and encounters provides important context for understanding how race operates in people’s lives in ordinary settings like classrooms, dorm rooms, borderlands, elevators, and families.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Critical Race Theory and Qualitative Methods provides insights and examples of why and how Critical Race Theory (CRT) serves and makes a powerful connection to qualitative study in education. The chapters in this volume speak to the ways that validate CRT as a methodological framework to understand and strategize against racialized neglect, political attacks, and building community. The volume builds and extends upon previous CRT qualitative methodological foundations research with the goal of continuing to center the experiences and voices of those historically shut out of education narratives. Chapters represent a wide swath of qualitative methodologies that illustrate the interdisciplinary nature of CRT and display both the utility and the broad scope of CRT research being conducted in the field of Education. Furthermore, the historical perspectives provided in the book allow for an understanding of where CRT methodologies have been and where scholars may take them into the future. This book will be a key resource for researchers and scholars of educational research, educational leadership and policy, educational studies, sociology, ethnic and racial studies, and research methods. This book was originally published as a special issue of International Journal of Qualitative Studies in Education.

Book The Browning of America and the Evasion of Social Justice

Download or read book The Browning of America and the Evasion of Social Justice written by Ronald R. Sundstrom and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2008-10-09 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book considers the challenge that the so-called browning of America poses for any discussion of the future of race and social justice. In the philosophy of race there has been little reflection about how the rapid increase in the Latino, Asian American, and mixed-race populations affects the historical demands for racial justice by Native Americans and African Americans. Ronald R. Sundstrom examines how recent demographic shifts bear upon central questions in race theory and social and political philosophy, including color blindness, interracial intimacy, and the future of race. Sundstrom cautions that rather than getting caught up in romantic reveries about the browning of America, we should remain vigilant that longstanding claims for racial justice not be washed away.

  • Release : 2021-12-01
  • ISBN : 1438486553
  • Pages : 393 pages

Download or read book Stakes Is High written by Derrick R. Brooms and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2021-12-01 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing on interviews that span over seven years, Derrick R. Brooms provides detailed accounts of a select group of Black young men's pathways from secondary school through college. As opposed to the same old stories about young Black men, Brooms offers new narratives that speak to Black boys' and young men's agency, aspirations, hopes, and possibilities. Even as they feel contested and constrained because they are Black and male, these young men anchor their educational desires within their families and communities. Critical to their journeys are the many challenges they face in public discourse and societal projections, in their home neighborhoods and schooling community, in educational environments, and in their health and well-being. In charting these challenges and the high stakes of the trials, lessons, and triumphs they experience, Brooms shows that we cannot understand the educational journeys of Black boys and young men without accounting for the full sociocultural contexts of their lives and how they make sense of those contexts.

Book The Yale Indian

    Book Details:
  • Author : Joel Pfister
  • Publisher : Duke University Press
  • Release : 2009-06-12
  • ISBN : 0822392399
  • Pages : 279 pages

Download or read book The Yale Indian written by Joel Pfister and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2009-06-12 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Honored in his own time as one of the most prominent Indian public intellectuals, Henry Roe Cloud (c. 1884–1950) fought to open higher education to Indians. Joel Pfister’s extensive archival research establishes the historical significance of key chapters in the Winnebago’s remarkable life. Roe Cloud was the first Indian to receive undergraduate and graduate degrees from Yale University, where he was elected to the prestigious and intellectual Elihu Club. Pfister compares Roe Cloud’s experience to that of other “college Indians” and also to African Americans such as W. E. B. Du Bois. Roe Cloud helped launch the Society of American Indians, graduated from Auburn seminary, founded a preparatory school for Indians, and served as the first Indian superintendent of the Haskell Institute (forerunner of Haskell Indian Nations University). He also worked under John Collier at the Bureau of Indian Affairs, where he was a catalyst for the Indian New Deal. Roe Cloud’s white-collar activism was entwined with the Progressive Era formation of an Indian professional and managerial class, a Native “talented tenth,” whose members strategically used their contingent entry into arenas of white social, intellectual, and political power on behalf of Indians without such access. His Yale training provided a cross-cultural education in class-structured emotions and individuality. While at Yale, Roe Cloud was informally adopted by a white missionary couple. Through them he was schooled in upper-middle-class sentimentality and incentives. He also learned how interracial romance could jeopardize Indian acceptance into their class. Roe Cloud expanded the range of what modern Indians could aspire to and achieve.
