Abstract

The purpose of this synoptic rendering is to document a second-wave in Critical White Studies has been largely left unrecognized in educational research and teacher education. This synoptic rendering documents the rise and contributions of Critical White Studies to educational research and teacher education. Having recognized these contributions, this synoptic rendering focuses on conceptual shifts in Critical White Studies peer-reviewed literatures since 2000 that we call second-wave Critical White Studies. Documenting second-wave critical White studies, this synoptic rendering provides a meta-study describing new shifts in the field including: anti-essentializing identities, contextuality, relationality, and reflexivity in whiteness pedagogies. Overall, this synoptic rendering drives at a greater recognition of new concepts in Critical White Studies as they potentially inform education.
