"Intersectionality of Race, Ethnicity, Class, and Gender in Teaching and Teacher Education brings together scholarship that employs an intersectionality approach to conditions that affect public school children, teachers, and teacher educators. Chapter authors use intersectionality to examine group identities not only for their differences and experiences of oppression, but also for differences within groups that contribute to conflicts among groups. This collection moves beyond single dimension conceptions that undermines legal thinking, disciplinary knowledge, and social justice. Intersectionality in this collection helps complicate static notions of race, ethnicity, class, and gender in education. Hence, this book stands as an addition to research on educational equity in relation to institutional systems of power and privilege."
—Brill Publishers, Leiden, The Netherlands
“The authors of Intersectionality of Race, Ethnicity, Class, and Gender in Teaching and Teacher Education provide compelling profiles, persuasive arguments, and substantiating evidence that marginalized individuals and groups in the U.S. experience many different oppressions and exploitations simultaneously, or they routinely encounter multiple, interconnected, and inseparable marginalities.”
—From the Foreword by Geneva Gay, Professor of Education at the University of Washington- Seattle, and author of Culturally Responsive Teaching: Theory, Practice, & Research
