LatCrit and Education Volume 1

There is an urgency to document the experiences of minoritized communities in education in today’s United States. Latinx students and their families are experiencing multiple social and federal policies and practices that shape education and well-being.This edited volume explores how LatCrit as a theoretical framework has been used to analyze and document the experiences of Latinx students in K-12 education in the United States. Through diverse perspectives of education scholars, this volume critically questions structures, curricula, and practices. We re-examine how issues of race, ethnicity, class, gender and sexuality have intersected historical systems of oppression shaping the educational experiences in communities.
