Critical Race Theory in Education

<p>Appropriate for both students curious about Critical Race Theory (CRT) and established scholars, <em>Critical Race Theory in Education</em> is a valuable guide to how this theoretical lens can help better understand and seek solutions to educational inequity. While CRT has been established as a vital theoretical framework for understanding the ways race-neutral policies and laws sustain and promote racial inequity, questions around how to engage and use CRT remain. This second edition of <em>Critical Race Theory in Education</em> evaluates the role of CRT in the field of higher education, answering important questions about how we should understand and account for racial disparities in our school systems. Parts I and II trace the roots of CRT from the legal scholarship in which it originated to the educational discourse in which it now resides. A much-anticipated Part III examines contemporary issues in racial discourse and offers all-important practical methods for adopting CRT in the classroom.</p> <p>Table of Contents</p><p>Foreword: Ladson-Billings (2006)</p><p>Introduction (2016)</p><p>PART I: Critical Race Theory and Education in Context</p><p>1 Toward a Critical Race Theory of Education </p><p>Gloria Ladson-Billings & William F.
