Journey to Unlearn and Learn in Multicultural Education
«‘A Journey to Unlearn and to Learn in Multicultural Education’ includes compelling stories and critical self-reflections of preservice and practicing teachers as they confront difficult issues of race, power, and privilege. It will encourage both teachers and teacher educators to have courage in their journey of multicultural understanding and sociopolitical awareness. (Sonia Nieto, Professor Emerita, Language, Literacy, and Culture, University of Massachusetts, Amherst, Author of ‘Affirming Diversity: The Socialpolitical Context of Multicultural Education’)
«Professors Wang and Olson have produced, with their students, a truly collaborative volume about the challenges and possibilities for personal and social transformation while engaging in multicultural teaching and learning. This unique book explores the complexities of multicultural teacher education through a range of student voices and experiences. The student narratives are compelling and critical in their own right, but are enriched by the pedagogical reflections of their teachers. Teacher educators will find this user-friendly collection a must-read, for themselves and their students.» (Wendy Kohli, Professor of Curriculum and Instruction, Fairfield University, Fairfield, CT)
Multicultural teacher education does not work without attending to the inner landscapes of learners. This collection of essays depicts a journey of unlearning deeply cherished assumptions, and gaining new, difficult understandings of race, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, class, and global issues in teacher education.
