Systemic oppression continues to disenfranchise communities at the
intersections of race, ethnicity, gender identity, sexual identity,
immigrant status, religion, ablism, and economic status. U.S.
schools are an established system and a microcosm of society and
therefore, by design, perpetuate oppressive practices that
marginalize students who do not identify with dominant cultures or
ways of being. School counselors are called to be school leaders
and systemic change agents who advocate for all students on macro
and micro levels. As advocates, school counselors are called to
create an inclusive and antiracist environment that promotes
equitable access to opportunities and resources. It is the
responsibility of school counselor training programs to prepare
counselors to work with diverse populations effectively and address
oppressive practices through comprehensive counseling programs that
emphasize advocacy and social justice. While some programs infuse
multiculturalism, diversity, and social justice in multiple
courses, there are limited tools that help counselors in training
and practicing school counselors integrate antiracist and
culturally relevant practices in their schools. Therefore, more
resources are needed to aid counselor educators in preparing future
practitioners to do this work. This publication serves both
counselor educators and current practitioners. This book informs
culturally responsive, culturally affirming, and antiracist
professional practice and advocacy work of school counselors. This
publication serves as a learning tool that better prepares school
counselors to address the needs of marginalized students and work
as effective change agents to disrupt systemic oppression in U.S.
school settings. Specifically, this book addresses culturally
centered theoretical and supervision approaches, culturally
relevant pedagogy and andragogy, integration of social justice
frameworks into counselor identity, and culturally affirming and
antiracist counseling practices. Readers may benefit from the
practical guidance and integrated resources designed to help school
counselor educators, practitioners, and trainees as they implement
culturally affirming practices in the school setting. This resource
is intended to support these professionals in a variety of school
settings as they work to develop and strengthen culturally relevant
practices.
