Screenshot of an article abstract from Educational Researcher: "Brown v. Board of Education has played a central role in imagining educational justice in the United States. However, the lessons that we should draw from school desegregation is contested terrain, and desegregation efforts have largely failed both to grapple with the countryβs multiracial constituency and to offer a positive vision for schools. In this essay, we use theoretical conceptualizations of justice, relational theories of race, and research literature to offer a more robust vision of public schooling for a multiracial democracy. This multidimensional, situated, and relational framework is one powerful tool for those designing research, policies, and practices that help us move toward multiracial democracy.
The world's a dumpster fire but I am still interested in how we think/talk about school integration and educational justice. Luckily, @ericaoturner.bsky.social did a brilliant job leading the work for a new ER piece. We hope it's useful to others who are figuring this out.
