Narratives of South Asian and South Asian American Social Justice Educators - Hardcover

by Christine Sleeter (Foreword by), Nina Asher (Contribution by), Anita Chikkatur (Contribution by)

Narratives of South Asian and South Asian American Social Justice Educators carries the voices of faculty in higher education. Caught between the stereotypes of the model minority and invisibleness, the authors narrate their triumphs, trials and tribulations as social justice educators in US teacher education and in allied fields. Their autoethnography-based narratives substantiate that a racial America is far from over. Stemming from their experiences in classrooms and in the community, the authors offer usable strategies to educators and administrators, with the objective of creating a socially just society.
