"This collection explores topics that are familiar and central to those who study social justice education with refreshingly unique scholarly voices and approaches that integrate the personal and the pedagogical. A fantastic teaching resource that will open up conversations in classrooms and within professional development reading groups."- Özlem Sensoy, Professor and Faculty Chair of Education"In this age of Conservative takeover of public education, Arlo Kempf and Heather Watts’ new edited collection, Critical Perspectives on White Supremacy and Racism in Canadian Education: Dispatches from the Field, is a powerful indictment of White Supremacy and its impact on schooling and education. We cannot have a democracy founded on racism and then ask us critical educators to be color blind. Let there be no doubt that race is about White Supremacy and the ‘expectations of Whiteness’ with its conformity, regulation, policing, surveillance, disciplining, and punishment of different bodies. The best antidote to fighting educational injustice and inequities in schooling and education is not only to speak about social justice but also to embark on concrete educational practice for human liberation. As educators, this book gives us food for thought that by not fighting White supremacy we perpetuate racism, gaslighting, and anti-woke fantasies in our school systems. It is a must-read for all serious about the education of young learners with a willingness and sincerity to do something fundamental and to create new educational futurities for all."-George J. Sefa Dei, Professor of Social Justice Education and Director of the Centre for Integrative Anti-Racism Studies, OISE, University of Toronto
