Abstract What does culturally sustaining pedagogy mean in the context of a global pandemic, uprisings for racial and decolonial justice, and an ongoing climate crisis? In this essay, I build from decades of strength-centered pedagogical research and practice as well as the work of contemporary organizers to engage how educators can join communities in sustaining valued lifeways through education to ensure possible futures for all peoples and lands.

Abstract Educational organizations have expressed an interest in Cultural Relevant Pedagogy (CRP) as the guiding pedagogical framework. The increased interest in CRP is promising and raises questions and challenges about implementation. Educational organizations must intentionally implement CRP. My approach to professional development is to ensure that educators have a substantive understanding to be doers of CRP and develop their dispositions and beliefs related to social justice, equity, and multicultural education.

Abstract We examine culturally relevant/responsive pedagogy (CRP) and its extensions–culturally based and culturally sustaining and revitalizing pedagogy–focusing on Native American/Indigenous education. Teasing out the roots of these pedagogies in Indigenous education systems, we follow their “footprints” in contemporary education practices. How might these models of Indigenous CRP help nurture diverse learner assets, foster students’ critical engagement with power and privilege, and (re)imagine and act for a socially just world?

Abstract My focus in this reflection is on the role of mathematics teacher education in the preparation of culturally relevant teachers for urban schools. Drawing from the sociology of urban mathematics education (SUM) framework, I explore the current blind spots in our view of the preparation of culturally relevant mathematics teachers for urban schools. I also offer a vision of mathematics teacher preparation that seeks to address the identified gaps.

Abstract This study explores the value of co-creative play spaces for faculty professional learning and development. Data are drawn from the researchers’ coauthored publications, which utilized arts-inspired data generation modes. The pluralist methodological route and analysis results in design elements for professional learning captured through rich pictures, poetry, and dialogue. Resonances are shown between what has emerged from polyvocal self-study design elements and Brown’s guideposts for wholehearted living. Implications for faculty wholehearted professional living are offered.

Abstract The COVID-19 pandemic, natural disasters, and political and social movements have required each of us to pause. Collectively they signal a unique moment in our history, and we argue that they provide us with an opportunity to consider what matters most as we move forward. Using poetic representation and Brené Brown’s guideposts for wholehearted living as a framework, we offer a series of provocation for readers to consider the role of wholeheartedness and wellbeing in education.

Abstract The critical and persistent impact of violence, abuse, and social injustice on the overall development of young children has necessitated a global discourse on the importance of cultivating compassion during children’s formative years. This article links the defining elements of compassion to the discipline of early childhood education and calls upon stakeholders to integrate more concerted and systematic knowledge from compassion science research into contemporary early childhood classroom practices.

Abstract Following a circuitous and diverse journey through a nonnormative education that spanned the gamut of our education system—from being tracked into advanced and Gifted and Talented courses, to being labeled Emotionally Disturbed in my teen years and placed into an alternative high school setting—I have discovered the concept of wholehearted teaching and learning to be the key that both saved and altered my life and education.
