Scholars across fields of education have longstanding histories of
critically considering the many ways that inequities in schooling are
engendered and maintained, and, just as significantly, how these forms
of oppression might be resisted and refused. Drawing from these
important dialogues, Educational Necropolitics shares two years of
stories, sounds, and powerful images collected through a sonic
ethnographic study. What emerges from this work are the reverberations
of how students in this context and, more broadly, how youth across
the country often negotiate the intersections of race, genders, sexual
orientations, class, and other parts of their complex identities in
overwhelmingly white high school settings. This book examines what is
produced in the wake of educational necropolitics—the capacity for
schools to dictate to what degree minoritized students' ways of being
can remain intact—and, significantly, it follows the daily lives of
youth as they encounter forms of violence through what schools intend
to teach, what is left out, what is learned through everyday
interactions, and what is valued through the broader emergent cultural
contexts. This groundbreaking work includes interactive e-features
that invite readers to travel and interact with participants of the
study, which utilizes deep listening in qualitative research and
reflects the results of this sonic ethnography. A truly timely text
for educators and administrators, Educational Necropolitics provides
an immersive experience in which leaders can address and correct
systemic racist practices in the school setting by drawing directly
from first-hand student experiences.
