The first edition of What’s Race Got to Do With It (2015)
addressed a moment when those working on the ground—activists,
educators, young people, and families—were trying to understand
and fight back against neoliberal education reforms (e.g., high
stakes testing, school closings, and charter schools), while
uncovering what race had to do with it all in the context of a
supposedly post-racial United States. In the years since, the
steady and grounded work of social movements has increased the
visibility and critique of privatization, market-based reforms, and
segregation; demonstrating the interlocking connections between
racism and capitalism. In this period we have also seen an
intensified attack on public education (alongside other public
infrastructures) and a return to a more overt "racism as we knew
it." This new edition of What’s Race continues the examination of
neoliberal education reforms as they are being rolled back (or
reworked) to track the changes and continuities of recent
years—revealing the ways in which market-driven education reforms
work with and through race—and share grassroots stories of
resistance to these reforms. It is hoped that this new edition will
continue to sharpen readers’ analyses concerning what we are
working to defend and what we are working to transform, and
provides a guide to action that emboldens the collective struggle
for justice.
