Beginning from the premise that being non-racist – and other
‘neutral’ positions – are inadequate in the face of a racist
society and institutions, this book provides language educators with
practical tools to implement antiracist pedagogy in their classrooms.
It offers readers a solid theoretical grounding for its practical
suggestions, drawing on work in critical race theory, critical
sociolinguistics and language ideology to support its argument for
antiracist pedagogy as a necessary form of direct action. The author
contends that antiracist pedagogy is a crucial part of the project of
decolonizing universities, which goes beyond tokenistic diversity
initiatives and combats racism in institutions that have historically
helped to perpetuate it. The author’s pedagogical suggestions are
accompanied by online resources which will help the reader to adapt
and develop the material in the book for their own classrooms.
