Reviews
" Transformative Ethnic Studies in Schools: Curriculum, Pedagogy, and Research is essential reading for educators working to transform schools by re-humanizing learning spaces for all students." --Midwest Book Review, "At a time when institutions are grappling with how to move forward in response to multiple national pandemics, this text offers practical, sustainable, and evidence-based research documenting why we need ethnic studies curriculum in every classroom, including STEM. The authors demonstrate how ethnic studies curriculum, pedagogy, and research are engaging and critical for the academic achievement of all students, equipping all students but especially students of color with the tools to navigate our inequitable school system by centering their experiences, cultural identities, and allowing them a space to delink from colonial domination and to heal." --Democracy & Education, "Sleeter and Zavala provide context and research for a new stage of ethnic studies in schools that is meant for K-12 curriculum. They discuss student perspectives of curriculum, research regarding curriculum's influence on students, and conceptual approaches to ethnic studies as counternarrative. Additionally, they build on extant research to implore teachers, teacher educators, students, and activists to reflect on their positionalities within their school environments." --Multicultural Perspectives, "In their timely book, Transformative Ethnic Studies in Schools, Christine Sleeter and Miguel Zavala provide educators, researchers, and community organizers with crucial knowledge about the ethnic studies project." --Theory and Research in Social Education, " Transformative Ethnic Studies in Schools is essential reading for educators working to transform schools by re-humanizing learning spaces for all students." --Midwest Book Review, " Transformative Ethnic Studies in Schools is crafted so that both scholars and practitioners can engage with the text in meaningful ways. The book is theoretically, conceptually, and academically robust with thorough research and analyses--and yet the text is clear and reader-friendly. In addition to being accessible, the book is intelligible to both educators who are new to ethnic studies and those who have experience and background in the field. For educators who are new to ethnic studies, the book provides foundational knowledge that is essential to understanding this emerging field. For educators who have experience with ethnic studies, this work provides comprehensive content and consistently challenges the reader to think in new ways and further the field." --The Wabash Center Journal on Teaching

Synopsis
This timely and compelling book conceptualizes Ethnic Studies not only as a vehicle to transform and revitalize the school curriculum but also as a way to reinvent teaching. Drawing on Sleeter's research review on the impact of Ethnic Studies commissioned by the National Education Association (NEA), the authors show how the traditional curriculum's Eurocentric view of the world affects diverse student populations. The text highlights several contemporary exemplars of curricula--from classroom level to district or state-wide--illustrating core concepts in Ethnic Studies across a variety of disciplines and grade levels. A final chapter considers how research on P-12 ethnic studies can be conceptualized and conducted in ways that further both advocacy and program sustainability. Transformative Ethnic Studies in Schools is essential reading for educators working to transform schools by rehumanizing learning spaces for all students. Book Features: Explores how the traditional curriculum is not ideologically neutral and the effect that has on both students of color and White students. Situates Ethnic Studies within anti-racist movements to decolonize schooling. Illustrates the transformative potential of contemporary Ethnic Studies projects. Draws on the insights of Ethnic Studies teachers, researchers, and activists from across the United States. Updates and expands on NEA's synthesis of the research on the academic and social value of Ethnic Studies., This compelling book conceptualizes Ethnic Studies not only as a vehicle to transform and revitalize the school curriculum but also as a way to reinvent teaching.
