This book is a collaborative effort by a diverse group of educators who have dedicated a significant amount of time to studying and implementing antiracist pedagogy. Our aim is to inspire other educators who are interested in learning more about this approach and to provide them with a valuable tool to engage with and challenge oppressive policies that seek to undermine antiracist pedagogies. We are concerned that antiracist pedagogy has become a buzzword in academic and public discourse, often feared, silenced, hated, misunderstood, misused, and appropriated. However, we firmly believe that antiracist pedagogy has a crucial role to play in democratic education. Therefore, we view this book as a clarifying project that aims to provide precise definitions and concrete examples of how antiracist pedagogy can be used as a teaching and learning method to address the historical failures of American democracy and inspire students to work towards fulfilling the promise of American democracy.
