Teaching about race and racism can be a difficult business.
Students and instructors alike often struggle with strong emotions,
and many people have robust preexisting beliefs about race. At the
same time, this is a moment that demands a clear understanding of
racism. It is important for students to learn how we got here and
how racism is more than just individual acts of meanness. Students
also need to understand that colorblindness is not an effective
anti-racism strategy. In this book, Cyndi Kernahan argues that you
can be honest and unflinching in your teaching about racism while
also providing a compassionate learning environment that allows for
mistakes and avoids shaming students. She provides evidence for how
learning works with respect to race and racism along with practical
teaching strategies rooted in that evidence to help instructors
feel more confident. She also differentiates between how white
students and students of color are likely to experience the
classroom, helping instructors provide a more effective learning
experience for all students.
