Home as the Quintessential Anti-Racist School: Reflections on Black Logics of Place and Opportunity, Parenting and Learning, Being and Striving

Abstract

In this article, we share our process of reflecting together and our resulting thoughts on the idea of anti-racist schooling amid our current experiences as Black men and fathers, as educators and researchers, as faculty colleagues, and as friends. In our respective careers, we have each continually posed questions that critically examine a range of epistemic and empirical phenomena at the intersection of racialization and racism, injustice, socialization and identity, and the institutionalization of mathematical knowing, learning, and teaching. We hope to bring some of that prior work to bear on our reflections here—and in ways that, before now, we have never written.
