Critical Race Theory in Education: All God's Children Got a Song

by Adrienne D. Dixson, Celia K. Rousseau (Editor)

Although Critical Race Theory (CRT) has been used to analyze difficult issues of race and racism in education for over ten years, the function of CRT in educational research is still not entirely clear. By bringing together the voices of various CRT scholars and education experts, this volume presents a comprehensive chorus of answers to the question of how and why CRT should be applied to educational scholarship. The collected chapters address CRT’s foundations in legal theory, current applications of CRT, and possible new directions for CRT in education. Appropriate for both students curious about CRT and established CRT scholars, Critical Race Theory in Education is a valuable guide to how CRT can help us better understand and seek solutions to educational inequity.

Interesting arguments, but the text suffers from repeating the same central history of CRT in essay after essay.

I keep finding these hardcover toilet paper collections in a free library near my house, I guess a Marxist is cleaning out their shelves?
