• A landmark collection arguing that engaging with race at both conceptual and practical levels is a priority for educators.
• Builds a stronger engagement of race-based analysis in the field of critical pedagogy.
• Brings together a melange of theories on race, such as Afro-centric, Latino-based, and postcolonial perspectives.
• Includes historical studies, and social justice ideas on activism in education.

Questions popular concepts, such as white privilege, color-blind perspectives, and race-neutral pedagogies.
