O knihe

A volume in Teaching and Learning Social Studies Book Series
Series Editor William Benedict Russell III, University of Central Florida
Race and racism are a foundational part of the global and American experience. With this idea in
mind, our social studies classes should reflect this reality. Social studies educators often have
difficulties teaching about race within the context of their classrooms due to a variety of
institutional and personal factors. Doing Race in Social Studies: Critical Perspectives provides
teachers at all levels with research in social studies and critical race theory (CRT) and specific
content ideas for how to teach about race within their social studies classes. The chapters in this
book serve to fill the gap between the theoretical and the practical, as well as help teachers come
to a better understanding of how teaching social studies from a CRT perspective can be enacted.
The chapters included in this volume are written by prominent scholars in the field of social studies and CRT. They represent an original
melding of CRT concepts with considerations of enacted social studies pedagogy. This volume addresses a void in the social studies
conversation about race-how to think and teach about race within the social science disciplines that comprise the social studies. Given
the original nature of this work, Doing Race in Social Studies: Critical Perspectives is a much-needed addition to the conversation
about race and social studies education.
