• In Event: 47.036 - Racial Logic(s) Under Surveillance in Educational Space

Abstract

This authoethnographic inquiry presents two White mothers' experiences raising bicultural and bilingual children within predominantly White communities. Drawing on a Critical Race framework, the authors present counter narratives that push back against notions of colorblindness, Whiteness as property, and interest-convergence.
