Sixty-seven years after Brown V. Board of Education, public education is more segregated and entrenched in white supremacy than in the Jim Crow Era of this nation. The authors argue that an equitable education begins when we remove white supremacy from our teacher preparation programs. This book analyzes the multiple ways in which educator preparation programs continue to center whiteness and white supremacy. Innovative and affective practices are offered by the authors to enhance our educator preparation programs to center the lived experiences of students with marginalized identities in order to create a high-quality, equitable, educational experience.
