12 PM: CHANGING THE NARRATIVE: INTERROGATING WHITE SUPREMACY IN TEACHER EDUCATION TEXTBOOKS
Dr. Crystasny Turner and Dr. Michele Turner will share findings of their critical analysis of racial and cultural bias in teacher preparation textbooks. Their findings illustrate how textbooks propagate notions of white superiority and the normalcy of mainstream white, middle-class values through six distinct yet intersecting forms of racial and cultural biases.
Presenters will provide a framework that encourages teacher educators to engage to dismantle white supremacy in teaching and learning.
