Constructing New Possibilities for Racialized Organizations Theory in Educational Research
Fri, April 12, 7:45 to 9:15am, Philadelphia Marriott Downtown, Floor: Level 5, Salon ISession Type: Symposium
Abstract
This symposium brings together a heterogeneous group of papers that use and build on Ray's (2019) Racialized Organizational Theory (ROT). ROT is useful to understand how racism is embedded in the structures, systems, routines, and everyday practices of schooling, not simply due to the actions of racist individuals, but due to an entire system that is designed to maintain White power at the cost of Black and Brown people. Using qualitative, quantitative, and conceptual approaches, the papers illustrate ways in which scholars can operationalize and concretize a complex theory so that future scholarship can tackle critical questions about educational organizations, disrupting the field’s historical “race neutral” approach.
