Product Description An indepth account and model of antiracist professional development for white practicing teachers.Antiracist professional development for white teachers often follows a onesizefitsall model, focusing on narrow notions of race and especially white privilege at the expense of more radical analyses of white supremacy. Frustrated with this model, Zachary A. Casey and Shannon K. McManimon, both white teacher educators, developed a twoyear professional development seminar called RaceWork with eight white practicing teachers committed to advancing antiracism in their classrooms, schools, and communities. Drawing on interviews, field notes, teacher reflections, and classroom observations, Building Pedagogues details the programs theoretical and pedagogical foundations; Casey and McManimons unique tripartite approach to race and racism at personal, local, and structural levels; learnings, strategies, and practical interventions that emerged from the program; and the challenges and resistance these teachers faced. As the story of RaceWork and a model for implementing it, the book concludes by reminding its audience of teachers, teacher educators, and researchers that antiracist professional development is a continual, openended process. The work of building pedagogues is an ongoing process. Review Finally, a framework for what countless teachers are asking for, illustrated with concrete examples of what building pedagogies looks like in practice, with all of the questions, contradictions, emotional struggles, shortcomings, and learnings surfaced and honored. Casey and McManimon offer a deep dive into a professional community for white teachers to learn about whiteness and to act against white supremacy in this brilliantly written book that is deeply theorized, richly detailed, conversational, and engaging, with a selfcritical honesty that cannot help but to draw in the reader. This book will change our profession, and cannot come at a more demanding time. Kevin Kumashiro, author of Against Common Sense: Teaching and Learning toward Justice About the Author Zachary A.
