Teachers of Color describes how racism serves as a continuous
barrier against diversifying the teaching force and offers tools to
support educators who identify as Black, Indigenous, or people of
Color on both a systemic and interpersonal level. Based on in-depth
interviews, digital narratives, and questionnaires, the book
analyzes the toll of racism on their professional experiences and
personal wellbeing, as well as their resistance and reimagination
of schools. Teacher educator and educational researcher Rita Kohli
documents the hostile racial climate that teachers of color
experience over the course of their academic and professional
lives-first as students and preservice teachers and later in their
classrooms and schools. She also highlights the tools of resistance
these teachers employ to challenge institutionalized oppression and
the kinds of professional development and support they need to
thrive. Analyzed through the lens of critical race theory, Teachers
of Color exposes the ongoing racialization via counter-stories from
thirty racially, geographically, and professionally diverse
educators. The book concludes with recommendations that various
education stakeholders can employ to improve the racial climates of
schools and support the growing diversity of the teaching force. At
this critical moment, Kohli offers readers an opportunity to
strengthen their racial literacies and better understand the
strengths, struggles, and power of teachers of color.
