Teacher education programs are still grappling with the best ways of capturing preservice teachers’ dispositions toward diversity and culturally relevant pedagogy (CRP). Recent studies identified critical reflections as a way of capturing preservice teachers’ dispositional shifts over time, highlighting instances of CRP. This study sought captured preservice teacher’ critical reflections across two education courses at a midwestern university in the United States. Our findings revealed how preservice teachers took up tenets of CRP, but also revealed ways they resisted those same tenets. Looking across both courses, we found critical information for improving future practice.

Drawing from a conceptual framework grounded in Black critical theories, this qualitative case study explored the youth knowledge that two Black Male social studies teacher-coaches serving in urban Catholic high schools acquired through Black counterpublics to reconceptualize the ontological limitation of Black existence. Findings demonstrated that it was within civic spaces generated within the Black family and community that participants acquired the socio-cultural knowledge to see through antiBlack forms of White projection.

This article presents findings from an education design research program to advance the development of the Cultural Proficiency Continuum Dialogic Protocol (CPCDP). The CPCDP is a primary data source that uses andragogical and asset-based pedagogies and approaches to assess and codify educators’ cultural competence systematically. Findings demonstrated the CPCDP's effectiveness in assessing and codifying preservice teachers’ cultural competence specific to PreK-12 urban schools and majority-minority student populations. Also, findings demonstrated that the development of pre-service teachers’ cultural competence is implicated by teacher educators’ and leaders’ levels of cultural competence.

Though culturally responsive practices (CRP) are widely lauded as important for educational practice, the field to date does not have a systematic video-based strategy to observe CRP across classrooms. Through a qualitative review of 68 classroom videos from the Measures of Effective Teaching dataset, we examined the presence, absence, and antithesis of CRP. Strikingly, our analyses revealed that CRP were largely absent from the observations. Building upon our meticulous and reflective iterative process, we discuss measurement challenges and link findings with practice-focused recommendations that can serve to bolster teacher education in a crucial domain for an increasingly complex, multicultural society.

African immigrant youth adaptation processes in US schools remain under-researched. Using qualitative case study, this article examines West African immigrant middle- and high-school youth adaptation experiences in US urban schools. Findings show that racialized experiences, English proficiency levels, and multilingualism affected social relationships (both supportive and conflicted) with families, communities, peers, and school contexts. These experiences crucially influenced African immigrant youths’ adaptation processes. Participants drew from community resources and developed resilience skills to negotiate acculturative stressors when seeking friendship, belonging, and an integrated sense of identity in their new home. Recommendations for further supporting positive adaptive strategies are discussed.

As tension between China and the United States continues to escalate, little research has looked into how geopolitical conflicts impact the Chinese Diasporas in these two nations. Filtering his life through empire and AsianCrit, the author illustrates his racializing encounters with empires in educational institutions and the larger Chinese and U.S. societies. Implications include how scholars can address the historical, theoretical, and practical gaps in urban education research, connect empire with critical race theory to enrich urban education research, and leverage their counterstories to help teachers and teacher educators undo imperialism in practice.

In this research article, the authors examine the intersections of culturally sustaining pedagogy and critical family engagement to explore the possibilities for equitable family-school partnerships in urban schools. Based on the common values of trusting and caring relationships and power disruption within those fields, as well as data from a multi-year qualitative study of teachers and their relationships with students’ families, the authors introduce the framework of teacher-family solidarity. The framework challenges traditional conceptions of parent-teacher relationships, and the supporting narratives of teachers and parent/caregivers illustrate that teacher-family solidarity should become an indispensable part of culturally sustaining pedagogy and practice.

We used the emerging postcolonial frame of plantation pedagogy to understand parent involvement within urban Bahamian schools. We report on survey (parents, n = 377; teachers, n = 96), interviews (n = 33), and forum (n = 17) data to identify barriers and solutions to involvement. Findings demonstrate pervasive plantation ideologies and practices that shape interactions between parents and schools. We discuss our findings in relation to social and economic issues within Bahamian society, school and ministerial bureaucracy, and the metaphor of the inner planation. We make recommendations to teacher education programs.

Informed by austerity politics, struggling school districts have closed buildings to pursue cost savings. We investigate the factors affecting which schools are shuttered, proposing that the share of students with an Individualized Education Program (SIEP) influences the way building utilization is measured because of the different instructional spaces required. We examine the case of elementary schools in Chicago, where 44 of 402 schools were closed in 2013. Simulating administrative decision-making parameters with a logistic regression model and demographic, student, and school data, we find that Chicago Public Schools was more likely to close school buildings with higher shares of SIEPs. Such punitive measures reflect the politics of austerity and disposability, leaving students with disabilities, particularly those in low-income neighborhoods of color, with fewer educational options.

Young Black and Latino men face profound academic obstacles in transitioning to college. Few studies have interrogated college readiness practices in urban schools through the lens of masculinity. Drawing on a yearlong ethnography, this study investigated how young men respond to college-readiness practices while enacting masculinity. Many young men were not convinced that working hard in their classes was necessary for their college futures. College preparation stressed seriousness and vulnerability, but masculine intellectualism was playful and tough. The contrast implies the need for college readiness practices better aligned with common experiences of masculinity in urban contexts.
