Making sense of normalized feelings in teacher education, scholarship on race and gender has spotlighted the affective and emotional landscapes of teaching and detailed how the profession has been shaped around its primary workers, cisgender straight white women. "Dis"affection, though, or unfeeling in ways that disrupt the sociality of…

This study explores the intersectionality in the educational experiences of Korean American students with autism as they navigate the transition from high school to college.

This integrative review examined correlates, mechanisms, and consequences of teacher bias experienced in pre-kindergarten through twelfth grade in primary and secondary schools in the United States. Education Resource and Information Center, Sociological Abstracts, and Applied Social Science Index & Abstracts were searched to identify…

Research suggests that teachers of color (ToC) have a positive impact on students' academic achievement, yet, ToC comprise less than 20% of the workforce. Policymakers who seek to increase the number of ToC, particularly Latino teachers, need to understand what keeps them in the profession. Four female Puerto Rican (PR) teachers engaged in a…

Racial microaggressions in school have gained increasing attention in recent years. However, scholars often neglect students' experiences of racial microaggressions in rural schools.

Black and minority ethnic teachers are significantly underrepresented in British schools. Despite increasing anxieties about Britain's 'diversity shortage' among teachers, recent studies on the experiences of Black teachers generally, and Black male teachers specifically, remain rather sparse.

Educational stakeholders often recruit male teachers of color as solutions to the problems facing Black and Latino boys and young men in PreK-12 schools.

This article explores how and why a group of Latino/a high school students identify and explain racism differently over the course of an 18-month participatory action research (PAR) project. To do this we examine what recent scholarship has termed racial microaggressions in what is thought of as the Post-Racial America public school system.…
