Book Description
Asset-based pedagogies, such as culturally relevant/sustaining teaching, are frequently used to improve the educational experiences of students of color and to challenge the White curriculum that has historically informed school practices. Yet asset-based pedagogies have evaded important aspects of students’ culture and identity: those related to disability. Sustaining Disabled Youth is the first book to accomplish this. It brings together a collection of work that situates disability as a key aspect of children and youth’s cultural identity construction. It explores how disability intersects with other markers of difference to create unique cultural repertoires to be valued, sustained, and utilized for learning. Readers will hear from prominent and emerging scholars and activists in disability studies who engage with the following questions: Can disability be considered an identity and culture in the same ways that race and ethnicity are? How can disability be incorporated to develop and sustain asset-based pedagogies that attend to intersecting forms of marginalization? How can disability serve in inquiries on the use of asset-based pedagogies? Do all disability identities and embodiments merit sustaining? How can disability justice be incorporated into other efforts toward social justice? Book Features: Provides critical insights to bring disability in conversation with asset-based pedagogies.Highlights contributions of both university scholars and community activists. Includes analytical and practical tools for researchers, classroom teachers, and school administrators. Offers important recommendations for teacher education programs.

Achieving Equal Educational Opportunity for Students of Color
Author: Richard R. Valencia
Publisher: Teachers College Press
ISBN: 0807782726
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 225
Book Description
Valencia presents the mostÊcomprehensive, theory-based analysis to date on how societyÊandÊschools are structurally organized and maintained toÊimpedeÊthe optimal academicÊachievement of low-SES, marginalized K–12 Black and Latino/Latina students—comparedÊto theirÊprivileged WhiteÊcounterparts. TheÊbook interrogates how society contributes to educational inequality as seen in racializedÊpatterns in income, wealth, housing, and health, andÊhow public schools create significantÊobstacles for students ofÊcolor as observed in reduced access toÊopportunities (e.g., little access toÊhigh-status curricula knowledge). ÊValenciaÊoffers suggestions for achievingÊequal education (e.g., implementing fairness of school funding,ÊimprovingÊteacher quality, and providingÊstudents of color access to multicultural education) by disrupting structural racism.ÊConsidering the rapid aging of the WhiteÊpopulation and the sharp decline of WhiteÊyouth—coupledÊwith theÊexplosive growth in people ofÊcolor—this book argues that theÊ“AmericanÊImperative” must be toÊassiduouslyÊmount an effort to provide an excellent education forÊstudents ofÊcolor, who the nation will depend on for a sizable proportion of its work force. Book Features:Examines how society and schools are failing Black and Latino/Latina students, principally Mexican Americans who are by far the largest Latino/Latina group.Uses theoretical frameworks that draw from analysis of structural inequality, critical race theory, anti-deficit thinking narratives, class-by-race covariation, and an asset-based perspective of students of color. Discusses the “American Imperative” and the personal and economic consequences of not investing in students of color.
