Substantial research has been put forth calling for the field of
social studies education to engage in work dealing with the
influence of race and racism within education and society (Branch,
2003; Chandler, 2015; Chandler & Hawley, 2017; Husband, 2010;
King & Chandler, 2016; Ladson-Billings, 2003; Ooka Pang, Rivera
& Gillette, 1998). Previous contributions have examined the
presence and influence of race/ism within the field of social
studies teaching and research (e.g. Chandler, 2015, Chandler &
Hawley, 2017; Ladson- Billings, 2003; Woyshner & Bohan, 2012).
In order to challenge the presence of racism within social studies,
research must attend to the control that whiteness and white
supremacy maintain within the field. This edited volume builds from
these previous works to take on whiteness and white supremacy
directly in social studies education. In Marking the "Invisible",
editors assemble original contributions from scholars working to
expose whiteness and disrupt white supremacy in the field of social
studies education. We argue for an articulation of whiteness within
the field of social studies education in pursuit of directly
challenging its influences on teaching, learning, and research.
Across 27 chapters, authors call out the strategies deployed by
white supremacy and acknowledge the depths by which it is used to
control, manipulate, confine, and define identities, communities,
citizenships, and historical narratives. This edited volume
promotes the reshaping of social studies education to: support the
histories, experiences, and lives of Students and Teachers of
Color, challenge settler colonialism and color-evasiveness, develop
racial literacy, and promote justice-oriented teaching and
learning.
