Division K Fireside Chat. Teaching, Activism, & Resistance in the Era of Trump: Implications for Prospective Teacher Educators

Sat, April 14, 10:35am to 12:05pm, New York Hilton Midtown, Floor: Concourse Level, Concourse A Room

Session Type: Invited Speaker Session

Abstract

Aligned with the 2018 AERA theme of “The Dreams, Possibilities and Necessity of Public Education,” the purpose of Division K’s Fireside Chat is to create a space for early career scholars who aspire to and may struggle with supporting, sustaining, and examining the work of asset, equity, and social justice-oriented teachers in this current political moment, an era of increased opposition against anti-oppressive and equity-oriented work rooted in social justice coupled with the re-emergence of overt racism in contemporary politics. A panel of scholars, teacher educators, and teacher-activists will consider teaching, activism, and resistance from a historical and contemporary lens across place, policy, research, and practice.
