Session Type: Roundtable Session

Abstract

Whether speaking to historical injustices of racism and sexism in Anna Julia Cooper’s (1892) sonic framing of A Voice From the South (By a Black Woman from the South) or Franklin Bobbit’s promulgation of eugenics in the DNA of US education (1909, 1918), education has long been a sonic affair. The process of remedy and repair towards social justice with the sonic, however, continues to be integral of Education Sound Studies. While the presence of sound is not new to education and research–Indigenous oral knowledges (Tuck, & Yang, 2012); Labov’s (1972) discussion of Black English Vernacular in schools; and schooling R. Murray Schaffer’s Composer and the Classroom (1965)–Educational Sound Studies continues this necessary critical work towards just educational renewal.
