Towards Building Anti-Racist Communities

This exciting new edited volume explores how teachers, teacher educators, and researchers can build anti-racist communities by centering intersectional identities. Drawing from both US and global contexts, chapters invite authors to engage in critical reflection, dialogue, and concrete, sustained action toward more just classrooms, institutions, and coalition-based community partnerships. * Kendall A.

Towards Building Anti-Racist Communities invites readers into honest, often uncomfortable conversations about race, language, power, and belonging. Through richly grounded chapters, contributors share lived experiences and pedagogical practices that show how anti-racist work is enacted, sustained, and reimagined across classrooms, institutions, and communities.

This volume demonstrates how anti-racist communities are built when we honor differences, confront power, and act together. Through an intersectional lens, the chapters in this collection invite us to listen deeply and repair harm across identities. This is a timely book that reminds us that justice grows where courage meets care, solidarity replaces silence, and belonging becomes a daily, collective responsibility through sustained learning, accountability, and transformative love.
