• In Event: Discussions of Equity: Critical Race Theory, Culturally Responsive Schooling, and Identity Issues in Social Studies Education

Abstract

This paper shares how one teacher education program is working to interrupt racist, xenophobic, sexist, and other forms of discrimination that occur in P-12 field experiences. We hope session attendees will engage with the ideas and practices presented and reflect on connections to their schools, communities, and contexts.
