SUMMARY:SOE Community Read and Author Talk
DESCRIPTION:Stamped from the Beginning:\nThe Definitive History of Racist Ideas in America\nby Dr. Ibram X. Kendi\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTogether we will explore the deeply entrenched history of anti-Black racist ideas upon which our nation was founded and continues to function\, and explore together how to expose and dismantle racism in our communities and schools. \nStamped from the Beginning chronicles the entire story of anti–Black racist ideas and their staggering power over the course of American history focusing on the lives of five major American intellectuals. He offers a window into the contentious debates between assimilationists and segregationists and between racists and anti-racists\, illustrating that racist thinking did not arise from ignorance or hatred. Racist ideas were created and popularized in an effort to defend deeply entrenched discriminatory policies and to rationalize the nation’s racial inequities in everything from wealth to health. While racist ideas are easily produced and easily consumed\, they can also be discredited. In shedding much–needed light on the murky history of racist ideas\, Stamped from the Beginning offers tools to expose them—and in the process\, reason to hope. \nIBRAM X. KENDI is one of America’s foremost historians and leading antiracist voices. He is a National Book Award-winning and #1 New York Times bestselling author. Kendi is the Andrew W. Mellon Professor in the Humanities and the Founding Director of the Boston University Center for Antiracist Research. Kendi is a contributor writer at The Atlantic and a CBS News correspondent. He is also the 2020-2021 Frances B. Cashin Fellow at the Radcliffe Institute for the Advanced Study at Harvard University. \nIf you have questions\, please contact Katie Hayes at katiehay@umich.edu. \n

SUMMARY:ES Colloquium: Leanne Kang
DESCRIPTION:“Dismantled: The Breakup of an Urban School System- Detroit\, 1980-2016“\nPresented by Assistant Professor Leanne Kang\nEducational Foundations at the College of Education\,\nGrand Valley State University\nThursday\, October 29\, 2020\n12:00 PM–1:00 PM\nZoom Link\n\n\nAbout the Discussion\nA book talk on Dr. Kang’s recently published book\, Dismantled: The Breakup of an Urban School System- Detroit\, 1980-2016. In this talk\, Kang discusses what led to the extinction of the Detroit Public Schools in 2016\, its meaning within the historical context of U.S. public schooling\, and its implications for educators more broadly. In particular\, she invites her audience to think about how she made sense of the rise of Betsy DeVos and the political dilemmas that are presented in the Detroit case study. She also discusses the merits of using historical analysis to examine education policy\, particularly as it relates to the unfinished business of racial justice and equity in the U.S.\nThis talk will follow the Education Studies faculty meeting with this Zoom link.  \n\nAbout Dr. Kang\nDr. Leanne Kang is an assistant professor of Educational Foundations at the College of Education. She received her Ph.D. in Educational Foundations and Policy from the University of Michigan. Kang works closely with preservice teachers and administrators across Michigan\, particularly in Grand Rapids and Detroit. Her research examines how the history of urban education in the U.S. informs our understanding of current educational reform\, policy\, and practices. Achieving racial justice is also a driving force behind her teaching and research. She is the author of the book\, Dismantled: The Breakup of an Urban School System-Detroit\, 1980-2016. Prior to her academic career\, Kang was a proud teacher of the most amazing students at an urban public high school in New Jersey.

SUMMARY:Beyond Blue: Webinar- Asian Americans in Racial Justice Work (University of Maryland)
DESCRIPTION:Webinar Registration\ngo.umd.edu/racialsolidarity\n\nLiberation for Black\, Indigenous\, and People of Color (BIPOC) must start with the fight against anti-Blackness. But how do we do this work in solidarity with one another? What challenges and possibilities must we acknowledge and confront as Asian Americans in our work for racial justice? When and where do we enter this conversation\, participate in this resistance\, take up space on the streets\, amplify our demands\, and uplift our brothers and sisters in thoughtful and impactful ways?\n\n\nIn this critical dialogue on Asian Americans in racial justice work\, we consider the ways in which we\, as Asian Americans\, grapple with the contradictions of our proxy privileges as “model minorities” and anti-Asian racism as “perilous perpetual foreigners.” How do these precarious positionalities facilitate\, and at once\, impede our fight against anti-Blackness? What is the function of anti-Black racism within the context of white supremacy\, white privilege\, and power\, and how are we complicit in perpetuating it? How do we resist and fight against it? And importantly\, how do we move forward in pursuit of cross-racial solidarity with BIPOC communities?\n\n\nThis event is brought to you by the Asian American Studies Program (UMD) and the Office of Multicultural Involvement and Community Advocacy (UMD).\n\n\n—\nWilliam Ming Liu\, PhD. is Professor and Chair of the Department of Counseling\, Higher Education\, and Special Education.

SUMMARY:BeyondBlue: Webinar-Unapologetic Research: Exploring Racism in Education Research (The Ohio State University)
DESCRIPTION:New webinar series ‘unapologetically’ considers racism in educational research\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRacial bias pervades American institutions. Nowhere is it more entrenched than in academic research. \nDecades of biases are baked into academic research. Consider the field of higher education and student affairs alone: Historically and even today\, white men have been studied and their experiences have become universal for understanding how every other group develops while attending college\, said Lori Patton Davis\, chair of the Department of Educational Studies and professor of higher education and student affairs. That’s not unique to the education field. \n“Any time research situates white people as the default\, it’s inherently anti-black and inherently problematic\, especially when it’s used to frame other people’s experiences\,” said Patton Davis. \nContemporary research\, while more inclusive\, is far from achieving parity. When built upon those older theories and models\, it can also be less representative.  Then\, findings marginalize and alienate people of color\, resulting in policies dictated by partial truths rooted in predominantly white experiences. \nAs the college responded to racial injustice in 2020\, Patton Davis and Penny Pasque\, professor and the college’s director of qualitative methods\, have advocated for making research more equitable and more accurate. They have partnered with the Office of Advancement to create a webinar series. Unapologetic Educational Research: Addressing\, Anti-blackness\, Racism and White Supremacy launches Oct. 1 and will feature alumni sharing their expertise. \n“Unapologetic educational research moves beyond a standardized way of doing research\,” Patton Davis said. It doesn’t sanitize the issues. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nUnapologetic Research Series\nWebinar schedule \nOctober 1\, 3 p.m.\, EST\nD-L Stewart\nColorado State University \n\n\nRegister – Oct. 1 webinar\n\n\nOctober 22\, 3 p.m.\, EST\nRichard Milner\nVanderbilt University \n\n\nRegister – Oct. 22 webinar\n\n\nNovember 12\, 3 p.m.\, EST\nApril Peters-Hawkins\nUniversity of Houston \n\n\nRegister – Nov. 12 webinar\n\n\nMore sessions will be announced soon \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“It’s a push for people who are engaging in this work to not be afraid to study these pressing topics — to center minoritized voices\, name the issues that we’re seeing and not to feel compelled to run away from them\,” Patton Davis said. “So\, to do the work\, unapologetically.” \nThe series will examine not only conducting research centered on race\, but how to make any research more just and equitable\, Pasque said. \n“If you’re doing research on STEM education in grade schools or undergraduates in college\, how are you unapologetically paying attention to anti-blackness\, racism and white supremacy in your research\, even if it’s not the topic?” Pasque said. “Or it could be the topic\, but how are you conceptualizing research in order to really make that difference?” \n“What does it mean to really do strong anti-racist research from beginning to end — designing your research questions\, designing your methods\, connecting with participants and people in your studies” and even disseminating the findings. \nThe series will address that arch of unapologetic research by hosting three alumni who have centered their careers on  exploring issues of racism. More sessions are being planned. \n\nShared by Andwatta Barnes.

SUMMARY:ES Colloquium: Jay Gillen
DESCRIPTION:” Sustaining Insurgent Youth for the Long Haul: Radical Education\, Organizing and Employment“\n  \nPresented by Dr. Jay Gillen\nFacilitator for the Algebra Project at Baltimore City Public Schools\nThursday\, September 24\, 2020\n12:00 PM–1:00 PM\nZoom Link\n\nThe Talk\nYoung people have woken up many adults in the country by their work on the streets this year. They command attention. However\, strategies for developing youth power for radical Black\, Latinx\, and Indigenous adolescents have only begun to surface in public schools. Current strategies focus mostly on culturally relevant pedagogy and restorative justice/anti-carceral initiatives–which are certainly important. We can go further. This talk will center on sustaining youth insurgencies through employment\, organizing\, and educational strategies used in the Baltimore Algebra Project and rooted in the Black Freedom Struggle.\nThis talk will follow the Education Studies faculty meeting. \n\nAbout Jay Gillen\nJay Gillen has taught and organized in and around Baltimore City Public Schools since 1987. In 1994\, after a 2-year organizing campaign\, he became teacher-director of the new Stadium Middle School\, the first community-controlled public school in Baltimore in many years. Working with graduates of the Stadium School\, Gillen developed the peer-tutoring Baltimore Algebra Project (BAP). He is currently helping to design youth-led math research centers and to develop a peer-to-peer youth enterprise incubator. Gillen is the author of Educating for Insurgency: The Roles of Young People in Schools of Poverty and The Power in the Room: Radical Education through Youth Organizing and Employment.
