This article uses a framework that combines LatCrit theory, racist nativism, and liberating pedagogy of praxis (LPP) to examine how a community youth program's LPP practices countered the racist nativism Latinx youth experience in their high school. LPP practices challenged racist nativism by creating a space where Latinx youth faced each other in circles to engage in authentic collective intergenerational dialogue about lived experiences of racist nativism, which cultivated solidarity and a call to action.

Through an examination of ethnographic fieldwork data, this paper explores the ways in which cloud-based collaborative technologies created by Google mediate (Latour 1994) teachers' discussions around, agreement of and enactments of their classroom practices. Bringing together concepts from actor-network theory and literacy studies, this paper argues for greater consideration of the role(s) of increasingly-used technologies in shaping teachers' practices and suggests a framework for exploring this issue further.

Many educators living near the United States and Mexico border were transfronterizo students—young people with familial and institutional ties to both countries, who crossed the border each day to attend United States schools. This study is concerned with how these teachers’ identities formed within distinct sociocultural contexts like the Borderlands and how this can serve education institutions invested in teacher identity work.

We explore how Black and Latino/a students from economically marginalized communities drew upon dominant capitals accrued by virtue of attendance at elite secondary schools in conjunction with non-dominant family and community capitals to chart their postsecondary lives through college and beyond. In so doing, we point to affordances offered by the authors’ longitudinal qualitative research investigation, as we work to understand individual and collective class and race positioning practices and outcomes post high school.

This reflection is drawn from a youth participatory action research (YPAR) collaboration set in Kakuma Refugee Camp in Kenya. It explores the ways youth co-researchers employed YPAR tools to both critique and uphold their limited educational opportunity structure. It also questions the limits of transformative methodologies that embolden young people to critique the structures that govern their lives, especially for stateless peoples whose survival depends on continued access to those same structures.

In this article, we synthesize ethnographic data from two studies in US school districts that were implementing dual language bilingual education (DLBE) programs in order to remediate the standardized test scores of students from Spanish-speaking families. While educators in both districts commonly cited “the research” to justify DLBE implementation, our ethnographic exploration of local research discourse highlights some ideological contradictions within DLBE that are often obscured by advocacy imperatives.

This qualitative study examines the experiences of Latinx youth and mainly white staff of the Academic Scholars Program, a college access program that operated in an affluent suburban high school. Guided by Critical Race Theory and Critical Whiteness Studies, the findings highlight the constraints Latinx youth and staff faced and how they resisted assimilative practices.

The United States is experiencing state disinvestment from higher education and significant wealth inequality. This article documents how low-income college students both experience and attempt to manage these contexts in their daily lives at a public flagship university in the American Midwest. We theorize these experiences as forms of precarity entailed by a culture and institutional form that we describe as the neoliberal majoritarian university (NMU). We argue that the concepts of precarity and of NMU provide a more robust framework for conceptualizing the consequences of college-going for low-income students than do conventional discourses of social mobility, college affordability, or student stress.

In this reflection, I contextualize my own experiences conducting educational ethnography in a synchronous online kindergarten classroom during the COVID-19 pandemic. I highlight how conducting research in online classrooms transforms ethnographic research methodologies and concepts such as the field site. I offer four suggestions, derived from my experiences and guided by an un-sited approach to this hybrid online field site, to conceptualize a more fluid approach for studying online schooling in general.
