with the confidence they need to alter their pedagogy in more culturally responsive and
culturally sustaining ways.

These six components seek to prepare and support educators in their journey to becoming racially literate and eventually taking action to interrupt racism when they see it happening in their schools
and classrooms.

  • Black and brown youth - educational genocide - equitable education
    • Decreases opportunities for societal participation
    • Control and socialize youth of colour - school to prison - rather than giving pedagogical practice for them to empower and achieve success
  • Challenge for bringing forth teaching and learning for academic greatness = teachers unwilling or unable to engage deeply with their beliefs and examine their behaviour. Towards students of colour and community impact students' learning
  • Freedom dreaming - being equity but not really
  • Teachers must self-work on racial literacy development 
    • Develop their own racial literacy

    Teachers of color can effect their students' learning outcome and success.

    Cultural in-congruency can be a roadblock for social success in classrooms.

    -Racial literacy is a theory but also a practiced skill
    -Being able to discuss race and racism in constructive ways
    -racial literacy calls for self-reflection
    -requires familiarity with unconscious bias, unintentional racisms, micro aggressions
    -"white dominated society is for members of the dominant racial category to adopt an anti-racist stance and for persons of colour to resist a victim stance"
    -developing racial literacy require educators to acknowledge race as a major factor in the inequitable systems present in schools]]>     2022-09-09 15:18:01 UTC https://padlet.com/kelseyannca/dv5ahk9bvww7c4yc/wish/2289847259     Group 1: Intro 281-282 https://padlet.com/kelseyannca/dv5ahk9bvww7c4yc/wish/2289847447 The onus is on teacher education programs to lead the change that happens in schools (top-down approach)
     
    ·      Teacher candidates have to embody the anti-racist, anti-oppressive and equity focused practices 
    ·      There is a call to move towards a more sustainable change in education
    o   The new generation
    o   Move away from fancy course titles and move towards more actionable mindsets, practices and pedagogy

    • Questions assumptions
    1. Encourages individuals to question their knowledge about race and to understand that what we think we know is incorrect or incomplete.
    • Engage in critical conversations
    1. Focus on language and how biases and racist attitudes are articulated.
    • Practice reflexivity
    1. Is a process of (re)examing perceptions, beliefs, and actions relating to race.
