As an undergraduate at Brown University, Tyler Denmead founded New Urban Arts, a nationally recognized arts and humanities program primarily for young people of color in Providence, Rhode Island. Along with its positive impact, New Urban Arts, under his leadership, became entangled in Providence's urban renewal efforts that harmed the very youth it served. As in many deindustrialized cities, Providence's leaders viewed arts, culture, and creativity as a means to drive property development and attract young, educated, and affluent white people, such as Denmead, to economically and culturally kick-start the city. In The Creative Underclass, Denmead critically examines how New Urban Arts and similar organizations can become enmeshed in circumstances where young people, including himself, become visible once the city can leverage their creativity to benefit economic revitalization and gentrification. He points to the creative cultural practices that young people of color from low-income communities use to resist their subjectification as members of an underclass, which, along with redistributive economic policies, can be deployed as an effective means with which to both oppose gentrification and better serve the youth who have become emblematic of urban creativity.

This open access book outlines a framework to explain how a world system of white supremacy is reproduced through education at national and local levels. This contribution thus addresses the important need for critical race education scholarship that is not limited by nationally-framed or American-centric perspectives. Written in an accessible manner, the framework recognises that racism takes hold in diverse ways in local and national educational contexts, but is ultimately rooted in global white supremacy. Forging links between Critical Race Theory and decolonial thought, this framework explains how national racialized social systems are reproduced through global structures, knowledge, and feelings; and articulates how anti-racism in education relies on forging transnational solidarities. To illustrate the relevance and significance of this framework, the book engages with how educational systems throughout the world are implicated in sustaining global anti-Muslim racism in a time of Palestinian genocide. Addressing a timely topic and gap in the literature, this book will provide an invaluable resource to postgraduate students and academics developing critical scholarship that explains and resists the global nature of race and racism in education.
