AsianCrit in Teacher Education Research and Practice

Sun, April 14, 3:05 to 4:35pm, Philadelphia Marriott Downtown, Floor: Level 4, Franklin 8

Session Type: Symposium

Abstract

Amidst the rise of anti-Asian bigotry and the state-led onslaught on anti-racism education, this symposium aims to center AsianCrit in teacher education research and practice. In the session, 7 Asian American scholars will present their research, which employed AsianCrit lenses to investigate invisibility, misrepresentation, and racist experiences among Asian American teachers. The ways to foreground AsianCrit and Asian American studies in teacher education to challenge white supremacy and racialized constructions of Asian Americans will be further discussed. By bringing scholarship on AsianCrit in teacher education together, this session will expand our understanding of the lives and experiences of Asian American teachers and the substantial value of AsianCrit and Asian American studies in promoting anti-racism, equity, and inclusion in education.
